A perfect example of a blurred line.
(love those little guys btw- imagine a moment in time when we can cut those wires)
The question I would ask (not necessarily directed at you), is this effect somehow "less legitimate" than a similar effect in a human child? How so? Is it difficult to imagine how we might improve on the effect with respect to how we might perceive it. Say we packed that Mini with C4, and gave Asimo "eyes" that could see through the exterior. I like the idea of a "machine" that could handle the task of recognizing explosives which have been designed to escape human detection(so does the military).

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
