Wired Nextfest 2006, Part II

Bots were big.

Need a dance partner? No need to be a wall flower. I think they waltz, but not sure if they tango.

Bot arm has approximately 33 air pumps that act like your muscle and tendons. They hope amputees can use this botic arm. I like the detail of the fingernail etched into the model hand.

This bot can pick itself off the floor, and make unique human natural gesture. It's tiny.

Seal Bot Clever way to hide the power source. These bots react to your gestures. If you squeeze it, I think it makes a sound. I think they are being used for therapy.
