Tosy SketRobo, DiscoRobo robots (photos)
Vietnamese company Tosy Robotics is making waves by bringing Bieber fever to CES 2012, but it also has some pretty cool robots. Check out CNET's hands-on photos here.
Tosy
Tosy is a robotics company based in Vietnam, and it's getting quite a bit of attention at CES 2012. Why? Justin Bieber. Yep, the Biebs will be at Tosy's booth on Wednesday to show off a new robot, but before we got caught up in Bieber fever, we checked out some of the company's other droids at the Digital Experience event on Monday night.
SketRobo
This is SketRobo. The humanoid robot sits at its sketchboard and draws pictures for you.
Artist in training
Shh, the artist at work.
Facial recognition
Currently, the SketRobo can only draw images that are programmed into its system. However, Tosy plans to incoporate facial recognition software and motion sensor technology so it can draw portraits of a person's face.
Twisted tree
This tree drawing was done by the SketRobo. Meh, I guess it's OK.
Portrait of a superhero
Spider-Man was one of SketRobo's favorite subjects.
DiscoRobo
Dancing robots are nothing new, but the DiscoRobo can seriously throw down. It moves to the beat of the music, and during the demo it was cutting a rug to Michael Jackson with some major attitude.
Availability
The DiscoRobo and SketRobo aren't available yet, but Tosy says they will be soon, all over the world.
Hearts dancing
DiscoRobo has hearts for eyes, though it looks a bit angry in this picture.
Let's dance
Don't look now, but I think DiscoRobo just challenged you to a dance-off.
