New 'Zeno' Robot Modeled After 'Astro Boy'

A new home robot called Zeno is modelled loosely after the Japanese comic character, Astro Boy. Zeno can "walk, talk, express emotions, and make EYE CONTACT," according to a PC Magazine piece online by Lance Ulanoff. The shipping version of Zeno will get its intelligence from your Windows PC, to which it will connect via Wi-Fi. UPDATE: It turns out this little guy will learn your face, too. When you walk in the room, it will look you in the eye, recognize who you are, and GREET YOU BY NAME!
