VIDEO: Honda's 2011 Asimo robot

The Advanced Step in Innovative Mobility (Asimo) robot, which Honda claims is the most advanced humanoid robot, is capable of very human movements and tasks. Its lifelike arms and legs are not merely designed for basic movement, they can also help Asimo climb stairs, balance on one foot, kick a soccer ball accurately, serve appetizers on a tray to humans, and run. Honda has begun releasing videos of Asimo performing its latest humanoid upgrades, like pouring drinks and opening sealed bottles.
