    O man, I want one of these incredible yellow dancing robots so much! And the scientists who made it are cool, because they use Spoon as the music to dance to!

    From the page: "Human social behavior shares much in common with dance. Our speech, as well as the movement of our body, head, and hands, is periodic and rhythmic. The goal of the BeatBots project is to develop robots that can interact with people by synchronizing with these social rhythms. We believe that rhythmic synchrony is as important for establishing engagement, rapport, and comfort between a robot and a person as it is between people." I think they're serious about this guys.

    Great concept. Children couldn't help but interact with this cute little guy. Fun to watch him dance.
