I was wondering if anyone on this group might have some inside information about Honda's Asimo.
I mean like what's under the skin rather than secret information. Though knowing Honda, it might amount to the same thing.
On the week-end I attended one of the "Say Hello to Asimo" demos at the Science Center in Toronto.
The presentation was very slick, but a rather short on technical explanations and no questions were allowed.
I got the distinct impression that there's a guy with a joystick in the back controlling a lot of the movements.
Later, I checked out the web site. There is some stuff there about facial recognition and speech, but mostly, there are lots of cute demos and little hard information.
And BTW, what IS in that backpack? :-)
Thanks, DOC
