£6.6m Fund To Make Robots Friendlier - Report

Apparently scientists in the EU have been giving £6.6m to make robots more friendly so they will be easier to work with humans. This is probably more relevant to my Domestic Robots blog, but I thought many of you here would be interested!

It's amazing how robots have evolved from the Furby to the Pleo and the new range of Wow Wee robots. I think we're in for a very interesting year in terms of toy robots and in the next decade, if more money is being spent on it, I think it'll blow our minds!
