I personally was impressed with the robot as it could revolutionise MA training especially if it had a basic AI (though not too much, we don't want the matrix to really happen  )

Hello, The future is HERE!. Robots will lets us really test our skills and strikes. They could be set-up for various speeds and increase as your skills increase too.
Now we do not need "Robert"...our real dummy (just joking here) ...sorry Robert?..
Maybe a future body guard too! ....like's to eat oil, squeak when speaking,no sense of humor,always wears the same outfit, NEVER showers...just polish....we call him Robert..oops..Robo
Can we get a choice of height and weight too? This one is a Korean one, will we be able to choose a ..Japanese one or Chinese models.
Wonder about the warranties too....sun roof, ,two doors or 4? ...leather...ahhh the colors (silver or chrome). .....Aloha |

I don't know how much work went into teaching it kendo, but it'd be great if it could be programmed to do other weapons and maybe even empty hand styles...
