Keepon:Dancing robot
James Kellerman
Designed as a non-verbal dance orientated plaything to study how children interact with it. It has a pair of camera in its eyes and a microphone in the nose. The researchers originally showed a video of KEEPON dancing to the Spoon track, "I Turn My Camera On". The video was a huge youtube hit and the Band have now made KEEPON the star in their latest video.
KEEPON may just be the cutest thing in the world, and I for one am very happy that there are scientists out there making such fantastic creations.
The original video is here.
and the new video Don't you Evah is here:
