Flashback, Tribute To Sony Robots

18 Jan 2008

About 5 years ago Sony had every intention of putting one of it's robots in every home but sometime after 2006, plans changed and by 2007 the company killed off both QRIO and Aibo. This is one of the first commercials for QRIO.

UPDATE: The song is called "Love to Love You" by Dreamlab.

Sony has such potential to be a great company. It's unfortunate business doesn't see the value in continuing research and development in robots.

Only now are other companies able to come up with anything near the greatness of QRIO and Aibo and these things are over 5 years old. That's real innovation on Sony's part.
