I see. I saw that valkrie robot, dance and cross a path but for some reason it didn't impress me.
May be just because it looked like is having so much trouble in doing them.
I saw this mini dog looks robot too and it didn't impress me either

Humanoids are usually not very impressive, cause it is tempting to compare them to humans =) We just want the robots to finally become reliable and versatile enough to share work space with humans, it okay if they are slower and such ^^

Oh..I see. But what about the robot that can make face gestures?
Isn't it important to make a humanoid as well. It's useful

Humanoids are robots too. I never got the different between them but they are created to help us in more ways than one
 
I don't get why people don't think robots are beautiful but to me they are gorgeous and I should like a day where I could marry one and have a happily ever after

Umm...I am no expert but humanoids try to imitate humans but that's it. Robots on the other hand try to perform tasks.
Sindar could explain better I suppose

They are. It is just a word used to describe human-like machines, cause there are so many other types.
