Tokyo - Japanese Robot Invasion!!

Tuesday, May 22nd, 2012 – running time 04:04

During the time John P. and Cali Lewis spent in Tokyo, they saw robots. Actually, that's quite the understatement... they saw TONS of robots!

Tokyo is filled with robots. From robots on the street to entire restaurants and stores dedicated to selling the latest in robotics!

While there, Cali finally had the opportunity to meet the one and only Geminoid-F! She was on display at the Takashimaya department store in Tokyo for a Valentine's display.

Just as amazing was all the tech keeping Geminoid-F running. She sees guests using a webcam and a Kinect sensor for depth, allowing her to react perfectly. All of that is powered by a simple power cable!
