I-armbot?

The Korean Arm Wrestling Robot
Telecoms Korea reports that a Professor along with several of his colleagues at the Institute for Robotics and Intelligent Systems (IRIS) of Konkuk University in South Korea Have developed the World’s First Intelligent Arm-Wreslting Robot, creatively named “Robo-Arm Wrestler“.


From available reports, the robot has the unique and intelligent ability to toy with its opponents. Though having the ability to defeat any human opponent, Robo-Arm Wrestler “considers its competitor’s attitude and reflects his will and tenacity in deciding who wins.”

As of yet there are no reports of School children having their arms removed in a savage “wookie” fashion. But then again the Robot was only unveiled to the public today.

I wonder if it has voice to taunt it’s opponents with. that might be a nice extra feature.
