HONDA ASIMO at ONE UTAMA on 16th of NOV 2008 (Part 1)


On 16th of Nov, I and my sis decided to go one utama to look clear at ASIMO (Advanced Step In Innovative Mobility). A humanoid robot. He can runs, walks, and dances. An more importantly, he inspires all us to dream..:P.

"In the pursuit of advanced mobility, Honda engineers have dreamt of creating an intelligent multifunctional machine. What began as a dream has today evolved into a new possible partner for people in the future. It tooks 22 years of painstaking research and development to create ASIMO. The extraordinary feat in the field of robotics opened doors to new possiblities in mobility for the future. Although considered extremely difficult at the time, we set ourselves on this ambitious goal to revolutionise technology and create a Humanoid robot, which is able to function well in society by using i-walk technology.

ASIMO Evolutions

The concept behind Honda's robot R&D was to create a more viable moblity that allows robots to help and live in harmony with people. Research began by envisioning the ideal robot form for use in human society.
