New ASIMO avoids women

The original title is: "Walking amond people"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vA0xLVCb-OA&feature=mfu_in_order&list=UL

But the directive seems to be:
IF female THEN run

Because it is programmed to stray too far from people, what would happen if two people walk at the same time leaving a small space?

I guess it's a matter of tuning his conduct a little, sorry, a few lines of code.

In the same channel on Youtube, there are more videos of this new version of the robot from Honda.

This robot is almost "perfect".

    Clearly the social awkwardness of its programmers has influenced ASIMO's personality.

    In other presentations, the robot communicates very fluently and intelligently with humans, Will artificial intelligence or just a mere puppet?

    Can't blame him; I'd avoid them, too. Those 3 girls look like the twins (plus one) from "The Shining".

    Not nearly as cute as OUR twins from "The Shining". Come and play with us. Forever. :)

    Judging by the way he walks, I'd guess that he's desperately looking for the nearest restroom.

    Very funny! If you like that, check these DOUBLE boo-boos! Skinned knees in Chaco Canyon.

    And before anyone asks, that's an alcove, not an oven...

    Hansel and Gretel was read to them, perhaps?


    But it seems they are not liking it. :)

    I want to see ASIMO avoid those two as they reach out and try to touch!
