Watch Toyota's latest robot balance on one foot

Toyota has unveiled a new humanoid robot that can mimic the actions of a human operator, allowing it to do everything from balancing on one foot to squeezing a balloon without popping it. The new system relies on a remote control'Master Maneuvering System', which uses an array of sensors to directly communicate physical movements to the robot. According to the creators, this could be used to assist people at home, hospitals, or one day, even in space. Toyota has unveiled its third-generation humanoid, dubbed T-HR3. The bot connects to a human operator using a Master Maneuvering System and a virtual reality headset.
