Life Imitates Art- AIDA

As early as I can remember, I dreamed of my very own personal robot pal.  From Transformers to Teddy Ruxpin to AIBO,
we have yet to bring life to actual robot beings that can peacefully co-exist with us.

Well thanks to M.I.T. and Volkswagon this is soon to change.  Meet AIDA- Affective Intelligent Driving Agent.



AIDA falls somewhere between KIT and R2D2 on coolness factor, yet has the cutesy look of Wall-E. Will I finally get to live out my fantasy of being as uber-cool as the Hoffman...oh, a guy can only dream!
