E3 Robot: Welcome to the family!
December 19, 2008
The E3 is a family robot that could very well become a real part of your family. It’s just a robot alright but the way it functions is way better than a real human at times. I mean, it responds to your emotions that way you want, educates, and even entertains. Of course, it’s been programmed and can still be customized if you want. Read more

Nao Humanoid Robot: Still far from the future…
November 23, 2008
One of my favorite TV shows right now is the Terminator. I haven’t seen any of the Terminator movies but the Sarah Connor Chronicles version makes me think of the future when robots would act and look like humans. All I know is that human-like robot is far from reality or at least will be seen hundreds of years from now. Read more

Danball Finger Massaging Robot isn’t a robot, it’s a masseuse
November 19, 2008
The Danball Finger Massaging Robot isn’t exactly a robot but at least it gives your finger some love. This one looks like a bowling ball because of the holes. Insert your fingers then have them massaged using shiatsu techniques.
Vibrations do the job massage so maybe we can say that this is just a vibrating device but the Danball features an LED light show, melody, and infrared rays. The IR is said to improve fingernail growth while the LED and music bring relaxation.
The Danball massanger can be very helpful but the $1,991 price tag is just too much.
