The new ASIMO is closer to the robots that eventually revolt in all the science fiction movies "Honda Motor debuted a new ASIMO humanoid robot which features the ability to pursue key tasks in a real-life environment such as an office and an advanced level of physical capabilities. Compared to the previous model, the new ASIMO achieves the enhanced ability to act in sync with people - for example, walking with a person while holding hands. A new function to carry objects using a cart was also added." Pictures and videos on the site. Thanks Justin! Link.
