There are already a number of

bipedal-like bots,
exoskeletons,

devices, but Atsuo
Takanishi's team at Waseda University, in conjunction with Japanese robot superpower tmsuk, unveiled their new
WL-16RIII walkbot. We know they'd be a huge boon to the handicapped, elderly, lazy, and anime-obsessed the world over,
but seriously, could you imagine actually walking into a grocery store or a job interview with this thing? We can, and
if they cruised into the Engadget offices we'd just be all, "You're hired."
