The ApriPoko robot from Toshiba was developed to learn how to operate various remote controls by watching and asking questions. The robot features sensors that will be able to detect infrared rays coming out from the remote, so each time you press a button, ApriPoko will ask “What did you just do?”, so make sure you answer appropriately because it records your answer to its memory. This prototype robot is still in the development and testing phase. [PinkTentacle]
