It’s always nice when our killer can look us in the face. Even when it crawls on six legs. Measuring 2m across this six-legged walking robot will make heads turn. The WALKING HEAD is just that. Enclosed inside the LCD-generated virtual human head is an intelligent chip.

It’s also got a scanning ultra-sound sensor that builds bridges between AI and extra-sensory perception. It can detect any human presence around it. It even welcomes you with a display of awesome gyrations. The 4m wide platform that it performs on is no impediment. As it reaches the edge, it backs off and goes in a different direction. The pneumatically actuated robot is expected to evolve even further and transform into a virtual system with a wide repertoire of facial expressions, vocalizations, tilts, etc. It may even combine motion icons from its menu.
