The Robo Hopper puts Asimo in the air |
Look. Up in the sky! It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s…Asimo?
If you are like me, you love robots. And like me you have probably wished that little robots were flying around you in the air at all times. You probably also love Asimo, Honda’s robot. Well, my friends, a dream has now come true that combines all of those things. I for one, am very happy.
Kyosho’s Robo Hopper stands about 6-inches tall and looks an awful lot like Asimo. You can operate him like any other remote controlled helicopter, scaring humans everywhere into thinking that robots are taking over the world with tiny air vehicles.
It comes with a Playstation-type 2.4GHz 2-channel transmitter controller and runs on 4 alkaline batteries. He will be available in Japan as well as online by December for $90.
I expect to see the skies darken as wave upon wave of flying Asimos block out the sun.
