It happened in Russia: a rather intelligent little robot escaped from the laboratory where it was under construction and blocked traffic for a while. Maybe this wasn't his intention, but the level of intelligence and autonomy achieved by these new robots is incredible.
The robot learning to orient itself autonomously, test after test. Suddenly the door was left open and, just like a Roomba, our little robot came out until it reached the street. The escape took place in Russia, in Perm, and the robot was found on the street, where it had remained motionless because its batteries were now flat. Publicity stunt or human error?
The Russian robot is white, with two arms, a display on the chest and one in place of the face, very similar to Wall-e's companion. Is called Promobots, like the company that built it. For Promobot it is 'natural' to continue moving in ever new environments, above all without encountering any obstacles, because it was designed for this. It took company staff 40 minutes to find him.
