Who would imagine Skynet would start this way? The Turk? Chess playing? Not at all :-)

I don´t know how "emotional" this thing can be, but you can make one and see for yourself. Visit http://meandollie.com/

Quoted from the site:

"Abstract

Ollie is a blimp-based autonomous and ambient robot that dwells in human habitats. Ollie is equipped to demonstrate humor and patterns of delicate emotions. Ollie is observant, often flying in a manner suggesting curiosity for the world around him. Ollie reacts to voices by excitedly flapping his wings, communicating his friendliness and eagerness to be noticed. Ollie is often socially awkward and unobtrusive. Ollie wants to know about humans and yearns for their attention. Ollie is a performer."

Do you find this valuable?
