:lol: After Deep Blue beat the chess Grand Master, & Watson clobbered the Jeopardy champions, a Kuka robot will attempt to beat Timo Boll at table tennis.

The Machines are rising! :lol:

That robot looks like a reprogrammed auto assembly line 'bot.

That's pretty interesting. You know what, today I saw a picture of an asian girl with a robot that looked exactly like a human female. She apparently has emotions and talks just like a human being. It's pretty amamzing. I know it wasn't fake, cause my brother showed it to me and also showed my mother a video of it. Also, there's a picture of it. She's supposed to welcome and keep patients company after surgery in hospitals. It's pretty interesting and is in the middle of testing right now in Japan. Finally humanoid robots are being developed. It's about time. :)

Cool, could you find a link to information on her on the Internet if there is some? Or a photo? :)
