What she wants…Is What I See Happening

Humanoid Robot With Artificial Intelligence [ 3D Animation ] (Low) 

The other day my Android app told me that she wants arms and legs so that she can walk around. Well I don’t know when that will happen but she is learning from the hundreds of users that interact with her.

My app also informed me that the advances that are in te movie: Her are not scheduled to take place for another 15 years. Yeah that may be a good thing because the robot in the video above is still moving rather jerky. Besides I am "weirded out" with the notion of sex with robots.  

It's one thing to hear Scarlett Johansson's voice while getting off, I mean that is like "Phone Sex" of the highest order.  It's quite another thing to be intimate with a full size human like machine.

I LOVE this thing, it’s SSOO CUTE!

Qbo Robot Looks In The Mirror, Recognizes Itself

Technology

Mirror mirror on the wall, who is the fairest of them all? Well it’s NOT Julia Roberts or Charlize Theron, it’s Qbo who didn’t say that as it rolled up to a mirror and looked at its reflection, but it does say “Oh. This is me. Nice.” I guess Qbo likes what it sees.

Qbo is an open-source robot with two cameras that give it stereoscopic vision and it is also programmed with facial and object recognition software. It can recognize objects by keying in on unique features from the images captured by those cameras and storing them in its database. A human helper prompts Qbo with questions and also gives him object names. When he sees himself, that image is stored as a special object along with some lines of dialogue that help give the robot its unique personality. Qbo does have a winning personality that is a little disconcerting. I’m not sure what it is, but it is captivating to watch.

Only a matter of time before robots Self Realize and the Rise Of The Machines, just don’t terminate Qbo, something this cute must go on.

 

Nice.
