Seen at the Tokyo Plastic Model and Radio Control Show, the folks from Futaba are the latest to get into the bipedal-robot thing with their 802.11b-controlled Speesys (a pun on “species” if you say it in Japanese). The robot falls a little short of competitors such as JVC’s J4 in terms of looks, but the joystick is the item of coolness pictured right, built around the already cool (if shortly to become extinct) Sony U-50.
