ASIMO robot is the most advanced humanoid robot in today's world. ASIMO stands for Advanced Step in Innovative Mobility, ASIMO is the primary humanoid Robo that can climb stairs and walk independently. Aside from this, ASIMO is additionally having arms and hands which makes ASIMO robot accomplish work like carrying things, pushing the objects, and doing lawn work.
ASIMO also can recognize the moving objects, gestures, sounds, and faces to interact with the humans and interface with IC Communication cards. These gestures enable ASIMO to shake hands with humans and to track the object with two cameras "eyes" in its head. If you are controlling ASIMO with your PC then you can see what ASIMO sees. Honda engineers wanted a robot which can help people like aged persons, wheelchair or bed. ASIMO can not only do household works but can also do things like fighting fires, disarming bombs, going to hazardous areas that are dangerous to go for humans. So, ASIMO type robots are progressively valuable for military individuals.
ASIMO robot was introduced in 2000 and made its first public appearance in the USA in 2002 during the open trade sessions for the New York Stock Exchange. ASIMO has traveled around the world and visited countries like Canada, North America, United Kingdom, Spain, Russia, United Arab Emirates, South Africa, and Australia. ASIMO has demonstrated its abilities for more than 130,00+ people. In 2005 the robot walked the red carpet at the world premiere of the animated movies, ROBOTS. In 2007 the Honda engineers demonstrated new intelligence technologies where multiple ASIMO robots to work together for each other. Where the robots showed their skills to identify each other and avoid oncoming people, helping other robots to recognize its position, movement, carrying tasks, and most importantly to take care of charging the robots.
In 2008 ASIMO had a meeting with Prince Charles during a visit to Miraikan Museum in Tokyo, where ASIMO performed a special dance routine for Prince Charles.
In 2010 Honda debuted its documentary at the "Sundance Film Festival" Utah. Where the film focuses on the interaction of humans with robots like ASIMO. In November 2011 ASIMO was the center of attractions at the first Abu Dhabi Science Festival because it encourages the students to pursue studies in maths, science, and engineering.
On December 2 2011 ASIMO also appeared as a guest in a quiz show named QI. Where ASIMO won with 32 points by serving water to host and by dancing with Jo Brand. ASIMO also had an appearance in a film where a robot assists an aging man to commit his last job as a 'cat burglar'. From that film, ASIMO became the inspiration.
