Compare it to Geminoid HI-1 (also at ATR in the same lab as the different Robovies) and you will see what I mean. Cheers, Wumpus PS: And Robovie II is completely tele-operated for the shopping setup..

Here, look at them." "AH, EGGS! THOSE ARE ON YOUR LIST!" "Sigh.... yes...they are..." I wonder if it would have worked any faster/better if there weren't fucking 400 camera men swarming around it at all times bombarding it with flashes of light.
