Asimo has a new "jogging" option

This video shows that Asimo has a new running feature. Asimo can now run at up to 3km/h. This feature comes along with a new posture control system which gives a more fluid, and expanded range of motion to the prototype Honda robot. There have been significant upgrades to the rest of the robot too, with a higher mobility neck and hip, and more sensors. The robot is also now capable of gesture recognition as well.

These, and many more update videos are available here on Honda's HDTV site. All videos are macromedia flash format. I particularly like this video, which shows Asimo acting as perhaps the world's most expensive line following robot.
