Honda re-invented the wheel with the tiny U3-X, which utilizes the world's first omni-directional driving wheel system.
Emotional Theories Summary
I recently read an article about research building "empathic" intelligence into machines using an algorithm based on the "Wheel of Emotion" developed by Robert Plutchik's in 1980. (Researcher builds machines that daydream).

eCUTE (Education in Cultural Understanding, Technology Enhanced) Project
eCUTE will develop innovative technologically-enhanced learning approaches in cultural understanding and sensitivity that will help to deal with these problems. It will develop and apply virtual world simulations with intelligent interactive graphical characters embodying models of culturally-specific behaviour and interaction in scenarios developed via a user-centred design process. It will target two end-user types – late primary-age children (9-11) and young adults (18-25) – as contrasting groups over which useful generalisations can be developed.
The project will:

PERCEPT - Assisting the Visually Impaired Using RFID
The PERCEPT architecture is a RFID-enabled automated space for the blind and visually impaired, i.e. an environment with RFID tagged objects (audio landmarks, kiosks), that interacts with the users. Due to their ubiquitous usage and simplicity in operating them, we use off-the-shelf RFID equipped mobile devices (e.g. PDAs) as the end devices in PERCEPT. By blind and visually impaired, we refer to the population that can be termed as legally blind, i.e.
Intelligent Autonomous Systems Laboratory

Intelligent Autonomous Systems Laboratory
The Intelligent Autonomous Systems Laboratory (IAS) researches ways in which autonomous robots - large and small; walking, climbing and flying - can be developed to 'do the right thing at the right time'. Using innovative approaches researchers at UWE are developing robots to assist humans in dangerous situations in, say, detecting land mines; inspecting, sorting mail, risk-assessment or maintenance of hazardous or inaccessible plant and machinery, or in locating the sources of pollution.

ALADDIN - Autonomous Learning Agents for Decentralized Data and Information Networks
University of Southampton engineers have spent the past five years working with various research groups on the Autonomous Learning Agents for Decentralized Data and Information Networks (ALADDIN) project, which is developing techniques for building decentralized autonomous systems for dynamic environments. "The ALADDIN project has developed autonomous agents which will make decisions on their own without direct human control and can then interact with other similar autonomous agents to get things done," says Southampton professor Nick Jennings.

NAO - Aldebaran Robotics
Researchers at the University of Hertfordshire and eight universities in the United Kingdom, France, Greece, Switzerland, and Denmark have created Nao, a robot that can develop and display emotions and form bonds with people it meets. "We are working on non-verbal cues and the emotions are revealed through physical postures, gestures, and movements of the body rather than facial or verbal expression," says Hertfordshire professor Lola Canamero.

Geminoid
Where does the feeling of one's presence, such as the atmosphere or the authority of a person come from? How can it be captured, revived, and transmitted? To tackle this mystery, we have developed a new real-person based android, “Geminoid”. A geminoid appears and behaves just like its source person. Also, it is tightly-connected with its original by information paths.

MESH Project
The European MESH project has developed an integrated platform that combines semantic search with a variety of other tools to deliver more relevant results for a wider variety of sources. The MESH system can search annotated files such as photographs, videos, sound recordings, text, document scans, or any other media to find relevant responses to semantic search terms. The platform uses a variety of techniques, including optical character recognition, automated speech recognition, automatic annotation of video, and photographs that track salient concepts.
