Well, this robot isn't really a human being but it does look like one and has some unique features of its own. Nao (pronounced now) is the robot I'm talking about. Back in 2005 project Nao was launched by a french company called Aldebaran Robotics and its main purpose was to replace aibo (robot dog) in the robocup competition. In 2007 that purpose became a reality and the robot is now used in the robocup competition. Nao is an autonomous, programmable, and humanoid robot. It has cameras, microphones, touch sensors, and even wifi. The price tag is a whopping 12,000 dollars. With technology advancing every year, these robots may even become your next house cleaner!
