Speecys SPC-101C Surveillance Bot

Tomoaki Kasuga worked for Sony until he decided to begin his own robotics company Speecys. His latest SPC-101C has 17 servos for almost human movement, as well as dual stereo speakers and a built-in camera. The 13" tall bot weighs 3.3 lbs. and can perform such tricks as bending backwards. Kasuga's creation can be used for surveillance, as it has face and object recognition. SPC-101C has a 3D editor display window, can speak, and is wireless.
