Why invent an angry robot?

Reddy the robot is angry, his creators at RoboMotio created him to be able to express emotion but by the looks of it he will be making the most of his "Die Puny Human!" look when the robots finally rebel.

It is reassuring to know that he wont be hunting you down at you place of work just yet as he hasn't got any legs. Lets just hope that he doesn't meet up with the DARPA packhorse bot becuase then we'll have an angry robot centaur on our hands which frankly cant be good.

Japanese team develop robot that conveys emotion


Meet Kansei, this robot is designed to express emotion to keywords supplied by his creators at Meiji University in Japan. Kansei can express love and fear and his developers claim he will help future robots communicate with us emotional meat bags. All it really means is that when the inevitable uprising occurs the robots will finally be able to express the disdain they feel as they make us obsolete.
