i-sobot

Tomy and Sanyo got together to develop the worlds smallest robot (according to the Guiness Book O Records).
AkihabaraNews went along to the press announcement to see what the fuss was all about.

The i-sobot comes with 17 servo-engines and can be programmed to do useful things like walk into a figure shop/walk out with figure without paying.
The little blighter can also recognize up to ten voice commands like "lie down you little git", "stand up you turd" etc.
The i-sobot will retail for 30,000 yen. You can see the i-sobot in action in some exclusive AkihabaraNews footage.
