Cha, blogged about the AMA commercial. For those who do not know, AMA is currently showing a commercial wherein a robot tours possible students around the AMA campus to show them the mechatronics lab. The robot is so lifelike (well, in real life it is actually human ;) ), that they were surprised that the "lady" suddenly stopped from explaining about PLCs. I know, I know it is just a commercial, but please let me say something about it. Something is definitely wrong with that ad. For one, the robot is too human-like in movement. And it is so wrong that the "recruits" undid her blouse just to see if they can "fix" her. If I were a kid, fresh out of high school, I wouldn't be tinkering around with other people's blouses just to see if it's a robot. Also, if the facility is so high tech, why did their robot break down? And why was it that the recruits were the ones who fixed the robot? Doesn't that mean that they are very smart kids and they don't need to get a degree in robotics? Well, one thing is for sure, they did a great job in that commercial. Even our 5 year old neighbor wants to go to AMA so that he could make robots.
