trogador writes "Researchers are trying to give avatars physical bodies, so that the virtual reality robots can control the actions and emotions of mobile robots. The unification of software and mobility like this results in the so-called "Ubibot" (ubiquitous robot), which the researchers predict is the future of interactive robotics. In the future, avatars on your pc/cell/pda screen may be able to bring you your tea, scratch your back, or do whatever robots of the future will do."
