SmartPal V created by Yasukawa Electric Corporation, was designed from the ground up to be a service robot, helping people in their homes with daily tasks. It knows how to sort laundry by color and type, and then hangs it up. Using 4 CCD cameras and voice recognition, it can recognize and respond to individuals, or just wander around and keep things tidy on its own. 21 joints including a bendable waist allow it to pick things up off the floor, and it can continue to do so until its battery runs out (approx 2.5 hours).

It stands nearly four and a half feet tall and weighs an intimidating 280 pounds with a top speed of 2.2 mph.Via Bot Junkie
