HUBO's got all sorts of game QRIO and Asimo don't

Can HUBO get a… wutwut? Oh Jun-ho's engineering department at KAIST (Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology) has produced the latest in little-people sized walking robots, the HUBO, whose 4-foot tall, 121-pound stature houses 41 joints and motors that enable him to seriously raise the roof, y'all. QRIO and Asimo ain't got no game on this playa; HUBO sez: "Peace out, America!"

It's nice to see these people in Korean media doesn't tell
this crappy robot is being controlled by computer outside.
Apparently in this case, HUMAN operator...
There will be shame on these children someday.

What a POS. The only people that care about this Honda rip-off are the Koreans. Do a news.google.com search. They are bragging that the computer is not onboard? Can you say ROBOSAPIEN?
