One day we will all sit in fear and watch as robots take over the world.
For now, we’ll just sit back and watch them take over the dance floor.
A new Dallas startup called The Robot Studio rents out dancing, humanoid robots for your party.
Per CBS News, the Robot Studio’s most famous robot Benji has already led dance classes, delivered keynote addresses, been kicked out of a shopping mall, and built a social media following of more than 5,000 people.
The company’s owner Aaron Mehdizadeh said, “We are all seeing so many different amazing robot presentations, but regular people are not getting to interact with robots, so we decided that we're going to start building up a fleet of robots.”
While the robots are mostly being used for fun, the company believes they provide some potential for real-world applications that could eventually help people.
Co‑owner Pushkar Shinde said, "A lot of things are going to become easy and affordable because of humanoid robots, and these will be able to save some lives as well.”
