			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">We have seen previous versions of the PaPeRo robot from NEC in the past, and this time around NEC decided that it is ready for an upgrade. What new stuff and features can you expect from this updated little creature which seems to be almost lifelike at times, like a pet save for the fact that it comes in cold, metal furnishings? The updated PaPeRo will now boast visual recognition capability, allowing it to project “avatars” of people elsewhere. I wonder whether this would mean some sort of 3D holographic capability like Hitachi’s effort…</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4377" title="papero-robot" src="http://www.agadget.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/papero-robot.jpg" alt="" width="548" height="366" /></p>
<p>Apart from that, there is also the ability to type-to-speech, although not directly to audio conversations. Just like many other robotic vacuum cleaners this time around, the robot is capable of recharging itself automatically when it starts to run low on juice. Currently, trials of the update PaPeRo are being held in public buildings and old folks’ homes, although we don’t know how long they will remain under the testing phase.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">George Lucas, of course, is a genius. His idea of space saga of Star Wars still brings him a permanent income over 30 years through the licenses to manufacture a variety of toys that were released on the basis of this great movie.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2749" title="7" src="http://www.agadget.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/7.jpg" alt="7" width="115" height="200" /><br />
The next high-technology replenishment was still the same droid R2-D2, which this time is able to obey the 40 different voice commands.<br />
This 40-centimeter robot can always follow his master, shake his head, make typical whistling sounds and even dance!<br />
I think that $ 170 is not a big price for the favorite movie hero.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Do you remember our article about robots that destroy dream of all human beings? All robots want to subjugate the universe and they have a favorite word &#8211; exterminate.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2600" title="2" src="http://www.agadget.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/219.jpg" alt="2" width="200" height="200" /><br />
But there is good news. Here is only a character of the cult television series “Doctor Who”. Paying approximately $30 you will have your own robot. We can assure that it will not have a desire to kill you.<br />
Their word stock is quiet poor. This alien just lets you know time and impair your sleep. This is just an alarm clock.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">The Hammacher Schlemmer shop offers a robot transformer, which is able to turn into a sports car, truck, and the actual robot. It is noteworthy that it does this itself &#8211; of course by command from the remote control.<br />
Fully charge of the battery is enough for half an hour of active actions. Unfortunately, the original manufacturer is not mentioned on the site, so it&#8217;s possible to find this robot in other stores in the near future.<br />
It will be a perfect gift for any fan of Transformers. So pay $89.95 and enjoy this robot transformer.</p>

Transformers and dinosaurs entertain our children, electronic nurses help patients, and robots bartenders pour beer in pubs. But there are more &#8220;everyday&#8221; robots. For example, there are alarm clock robots.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2544" title="5" src="http://www.agadget.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/516.jpg" alt="5" width="200" height="150" /><br />
These small humanoid iron creations are not going to capture the planet and destroy all men kind, as their more aggressive brethren in movies, but they violate the dream of individual representatives of the human race &#8211; this is their job.<br />
You can become an owner of a small alarm clock in the form of a robot paying from $36 to $48. If you do not need an alarm clock &#8211; it is possible to buy trinkets with robots, which are sold for $15.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Recently, the official site of Toshiba in Japan described a new robot called Toshiba ApriPoko. This robot is designed to fulfill the wishes of its owner and help him/her in everyday life. It observes, learns what you ask and what you want and, thus, becomes an indispensable assistant.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">To say briefly, for the first time Toshiba ApriPoko takes command via special remote control and remembers what you asked. And the next time it will do the same thing just by your voice command. By the way, it has a camera and microphone for IDENTIFICATION of the person who asks something. It can have several users as the data is collected and summed separately.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Another interesting feature is that this robot can operate your TV from a distance, as it can be done by a remote control. That is, if you ask it to change the channel, reduce or increase the volume, etc., it will be able to do it.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">At the moment there is only a demonstrational version of ApriPoko and it understands only simple commands. But we hope that it will soon be on shelves.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">Robots help people in a large number of different situations. In difficult circumstances, where people fail with their job, robots easily cope with their tasks.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">That&#8217;s a new Water Strider robot which performs its function perfectly; it is designed to move through the water surface. This robot is made in a form of a small insect that can easily move on the surface of the water in swamps and small lakes.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1496" title="2" src="http://www.agadget.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/22.jpg" alt="2" width="250" height="142" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Water Strider can also measure the temperature of the water and still give some indications. It will be very useful, for example, when you need to monitor water quality in pools, reservoirs, drainage and similar places. Imagine how easy and cheap it would be if such a robot will replace all existing cumbersome equipment.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">You can also use the robot and for other purposes, for example, to spy on something or someone with a small camera. Water Strider can become an ideal tool for espionage.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;">We are all accustomed to gadgets for 5-15 dollars, which unique functions are repeated from model to model, and do not differ neither with the design nor with functionality. Everyone who is tired of the diversity of faceless pseudo-innovations and useless mini- stuff will at least appreciate the unique work of scientists of Essex University of Great Britain. Its price is 30 thousand dollars. Now we’ll describe its functions in details. First, this invention can collect data on different levels of pollution in the Ocean.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-658 aligncenter" title="1238228794_img" src="http://www.agadget.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/1238228794_img.jpg" alt="1238228794_img" width="200" height="200" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The attractive appearance of a scientific instrument is not just a whim of the developers, but a pre-planned quality. The scientists took as a base the usual carp, and gave it an elegant silver-blue color.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Secondly, another feature of this new fish-robot model is that it is moving without a remote control. Self-navigation system regulates the movement of fish in the water, as well as returns the robot to base for further charging and collected information transfer.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Robot&#8217;s battery power is enough for 8 hours of sailing, but scientists are working to increase this term, since it is not sufficient. Fish has a size of 1.5 meters and its speed is up to 1 m / sec.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">European environmentalists do not lose the hope that soon these fish will bustle in every port.</p>
