tmsuk's Kiyomori at WIRED NextFest 2007

A couple of videos of Kiyomori, the samurai robot made by tmsuk. It made an appearance at the WIRED NextFest 2007 in Los Angeles. It was the first time for any of tmsuk's robots to land in the U.S.  Kiyomori does walk like a real (short) samurai - because the armor is very heavy, humans would kind of walk that way too.

I wrote an article for ROBOT WATCH about NextFest in case you read Japanese.
