Honda has a site with 90-second TV advertisements featuring ASIMO. The ads depict ASIMO in a museum setting, engaging with a range of exhibits and everyday objects to demonstrate the robot’s human qualities and advanced technology. It closes with the thought: ‘More forwards please’ – which represents Honda’s continual push for technological innovation. http://www.honda.co.uk /asimo/

The well know humanoid robot ASIMO of Honda will come to Brussels on 22 September 2006, the entrance is free.
