Yamaha to Unveil Motorcycle-Riding Robot
Yamaha announced it will reveal a motorcycle-riding robot at the Tokyo Motor Show. Few details are available but Yamaha says the robot will have a humanoid shape and will combine motorcycle and robotic technologies. The robot will also be autonomous, able to control a motorcycle on its own without human input.
We’ll have more information when Skynet Yamaha debuts the robot on Oct. 29 in Tokyo. Until then, if your name is John Connor … run.
