Bob: Particularly I'd be interested in having
the robot learn a model of its own body kinematics - the beginnings of
a sense of self - based on data mining its sensory data and also using
experimental movements to confirm or refute hypotheses, which mught to
a naive observer look like "play".

Thanks, what an interesting project. Purely on the mechanical side, it shows
how far away we are from truly flexible house-friendly robust mobile robotic
devices.
I'm a big fan of the robotic approach myself. I think it is quite likely that

Bob: I'm not totally convinced that having a high number of degrees of
freedom is actually necessary for the development of intelligence. Of
greater importance is the sensory capability, and the ways in which
that data is processed. A birds beak is a far less elaborate tool
than a human hand or

I drool over the physical robot -- it's built like a brick outhouse. It has 53
degrees of freedom, binocular vision, touch, audition, and inertial sensors,
harmonic drives, top-grade aircraft aluminum members, the works.
That doofy face places it squarely in the deepest ravine of the uncanny
