Have We Really Come to This?
Dancing with Two Left Feet --- or Three Rolling Wheels
"Those with two left feet may soon be able to take ballroom dancing lessons from a partner with three wheels.
"The world's first ballroom-dancing robot is set to take to the floor for its first public performance this week at the World Expo 2005 in Aichi, Japan.
"Developed by scientists at Tokhuro University, the Partner Ballroom Dance Robot (PBDR) is able to predict the steps of a human partner based on body movement and react accordingly on its three wheels.
The 1.65 meter robot has a female face, wears a ballgown and comes in bright pink and pastel blue plastic. A male version is also being developed."
Here's another dancing robot version. Just overlook the sidebars and pay attention to the robot.
