| Asimo |
The Honda Motor Company developed Asimo, which stands for Advanced Step in Innovative Mobility. It is “The World’s Most Advanced Humanoid Robot”. It stands at about 4 feet tall and weighs around 100 pounds. It is designed to live in our world, built with abilities to help it do what normal people do everyday. Asimo can walk, run, climb up stairs, and recognize faces and voices. It can be very helpful also, with the ability to do daily tasks like serving a drink.
This fascinating robot can walk at a speed of up to 1.7 mph and can run at a speed of up to 3.7 mph. It runs on a rechargeable 51.8V Lithium Ion Battery, which is found in its “battery backpack.” When using both hands, Asimo can carry a weight of up to 2.2 pounds.
I have always been fascinate about robots, especially this one. I think the creation of robots is mystical and simply amazing.
