That shouldn't be in General Discussion? It feels to random to be here.

dannavy is saying that humanoid robots are getting closer to resembling Astro. Not only that, they are interacting with humans in a more complex way.

It looks like something from Sonic: The Hedgehog robot line to be honest.
Althout, I can see the red boots.
It still feels random to be here. The base of the android's design was not reffered for what I read.

Oops, I made a similar thread in GENERAL FORUM, but mine referenced gizmag PAGES.

Japan to send mini robot to the ISS by mid 2013 (gizmag)

MODS might merge the two.
