TOKYODV Video Log

Two Honda Asimo play soccer, climb stairs, and shadow box on a platform. One plays with a girl and chases her around the arena.

In the last frame, you’ll see a projection of Asimo’s vision. Something like Terminator, it registers the height, angle of the arms, and movement of a child in a computerized brain interface..

Some close-ups of Asimo’s ankle joints, tinted face shield, and knees.

The lighting was strange/futuristic and the fluid/freaky motions of Asimo made this an intriguing clip; still one of my personal favorites. Shot at one of the Robodex Expos in Yokohama, Japan.

Originally released in 2002.

My first video of the Sony SDR-4X, now called Qrio.. And discontinued by Sony. In slow-mo to accentuate the movement.

One of the most popular clips, through the ages; created in 2000.. I’ve dubbed it Robo Chi, because it looks like the Sony is doing Tai Chi..
