A conversation I had with Quasi the Robot at the Wired NextFest in NYC (which was amazing).
Quasi was built by students at Carnegie Mellon University's Entertainment Technology Center in Pittsburgh. It (he?) is an amazing character!! The conversation went smoothly and I really want to have Quasi at home.

This exhibit is called "Keepon". It's a cute yellow robot - like a chicken. There is a camera in its eyes, and the noise is a microphone. The robot can respond to sound or visual. There is a camera at the exhibition, that small robot can track objects (like a facial recognition in the digital camera).

The Software Pirate goes to Wired Nextfest and checks out some of the stranger robotic projects the show has to offer. Creepy baby seal robot Paro, creepy android Actroid, creepy ballroom dancing robots, it's a regular festival of technological creepiness.
