When the ALTAIR EZ:1 met Pepper robot

We had a film crew here today, filming me and my robots which is to be part of a European documentary series to be aired later this year. We finally got to meet the Pepper robot and it was great fun seeing it interact with our EZ:1

That's so cool Tony. I see a budding cyber romance here. Ahh, robot love.

Congratulations on the media attention. You deserve every minute of it. I would really love to see this interview when it's released. If it's not available in the USA is there any chance of you posting a link?

Now that's fantastic news to hear to close off the week! Thanks for sharing, Tony! Hope we get to see the video as well:) lots of Altair fans here, including me

Congrats Tony! I also look forward seeing the Video as well. Your other robot looks like a body guard in the back gound or maybe a little jealous. :)

Thanks Guys! I will certainly put a link up when the programme airs. The film crew are off around the World (Japan, China, Europe, USA etc) so this documentary series should be quite exciting!

This is how Pepper arrived - I need to get a flight case like this for the EZ:1

Here is a video taken on a mobile phone while the main documentary filming was going on here at the studio - it obviously low quality but does give a hint of the exciting atmosphere here when these two bots got together! This is really just a taster as the professional documentary filming was much more extensive and clearer and will be aired later this year.

Thanks DJ, Dave, Will - One of my favorite bits was when Pepper reacted to ALTAIRs "high five" with a "don't shoot me" - priceless! When this happened the whole crew just burst into laughter!

Very cool video. Robots meeting. I think my robot Dave wanted to date a Pepper robot. I might need to build him a friend.
