This humanoid bot - created by the Korean Institute of Advanced Science and Technology - can do tai-chi and is a dab hand at swinging a sword around.

Technically impressive for sure, but why give it a sinister visor for a face? It's kinda creepy.

Daniel Smith - a long time ago, in a galaxy far away just north of Watford, Daniel fancied himself as a scientist but turned out to be the worst scientist since that bloke who mapped out all those canals on Mars that turned out to be scratches on his telescope's lens.
