CES Buzz: WowWee Robots

After attending the pre-show press event, CES Unveiled, I left un-wowed for the most part. Most of the technology on display has been around the block a few thousand times over. Where is the innovation?

To quell the bitchy blogger in me, there was one point of interest that bears mention. The robot below, called the Tribot, is the successor to the RoboSapien. Unlike the RoboSapien, the Tribot is entirely autonomous. It can motor forward, back, side-side-side, as well as spin around. And oh yeah, our red pint-sized friend also tells jokes. If you tip him over, he responds, “I now see the world in a completely new perspective.” I know. I know. I can’t stop laughing either.
