And this is how it begins… the robots supremacy! This robot has been created by Toshiba. It can’t make you dinner, but it has the functions of an universal remote control. ApriPoko features a voice-operated system and detects IR beams.

After a chit-chat, ApriPoko will learn how to operate various remote controls. It stores your commands and then it just does the job for you. ApriPoko would be a perfect addition for elders or for handicapped persons. No price details were revealed.
