I spent an exhausting day touring the Consumer Electronics Show (CES).  For some reason I can trek continuously for 12 hours at a stretch with no problems but am left with an aching back and blistered feet after an 8-hour trade show.  My focus at the show is all things robotic.  The robot pictured above is by far the creepiest one I have ever seen.  It is an animatronic “communication” robot that features facial gestures and movements that are very human-like but not quite.  It is the not quite part that makes this thing very disconcerting to be around.  The day is coming when such a robot will be mistaken for a human and despite my love of technology, I am not sure that is something I want to witness.
