The silver robot in that last photo--he should have known better.

Only one rider at a time please, as per the safety video.

I'd just like to know has the robot had the proper training and did he view the training video? He's also too stiff to one day be a GlideMaster.

Thats way cool. Robots are the neatest things. Did you see the pictures of those Sony robots riding the train in Japan?

glidemaster, don't worry about the robot, he had assistance (notice the model to the right holding him in place ;))

These robots are so cool they even have their own web site!

Here's a link to a story about the company that supplied the robots for the Vogue shoot:
