Today's meeting at the Parliament coincides with the European Commission's announcement earlier this month to fund RobotCub, a project aimed at moving research forward in Europe in the field of humanoid robotics and cognitive neuroscience.

Although ASIMO is entirely independent of the RobotCub project; it demonstrates the groundbreaking technological advancements which have been made by Honda in this area of science and research.

In his speech, Professor Dr. Koerner explained to the audience the latest advances in humanoid robotics, the challenge for scientists and engineers in this field of research and the potential future benefits to society of this advanced form of mobility.

Commenting after the presentation, Professor Dr. Koerner said,
"Our long term goal is to create a robot that can move like humans, interact with them and be of assistance to them. Today's visit to the European Parliament was a superb opportunity for us to demonstrate to some of Europe's key decision makers that humanoid robotics and cognitive systems will have significant implications for future society."
