MEET MOTOBOT – AN AUTONOMOUS MOTORCYCLE-RIDING HUMANOID ROBOT

Motobot

 

Meet Mobot, an autonomous motorcycle-riding humanoid robot that I saw at the RoboBusiness in San Jose.

Motobot is a collaboration between Yamaha and SRI International of Menlo Park, CA. Think of it like the motorcycle equivalent of Google’s self-driving car. One of the objectives from the project is to improve safety of motorcycles.
