Japanese Lab Develops Robot for Getting Up and Getting Beers Out of The Fridge

By MARI YAMAGUCHI, Associated Press Writer Fri Jan 27, 2006

"When Hara asks for a bottle of juice, the two demonstrate a more advanced task, one relays the instruction to the other, saying "Please take care of this."

The second robot huddles to a refrigerator, stands in front of it for a while, saying "Confirming the location of the refrigerator." Then he says "Searching for the juice," slowly opens the door with a right hand, grabs a bottle of drink with his left hand, shuts the fridge, then walks back to him, squats down at the table and carefully places it on the coffee table.

"Thank you!" Hara says."


HOLY SHINTO! I WANT ONE NOW!!!!!!
