Who doesn’t want their very own a robotic rickshaw driver? Are they called drivers? Pullers?

Doesn’t matter. I just hope they’re working on a version of this thing that can pull a 200+ pound man. I’ll call him Gary and we’ll go everywhere together. Everywhere!

  • This video is just creepy!

  • I hope that they create celebrity versions of these little rickshaw pullers, like they did for GPS units.

    Could you imagine a little animatronic Mr. T pulling you, shouting, “I pity the fool that gets in the way of my rickshaw”, his gigantic jewelry dangling from his neck?

    In fact, I’m copyrighting that idea right now. You read it here first, folks. Move along… those millions are mine.

  • Love the idea of celebrity voices. I recently got some GPS voices from a site called navtones. I have to say though, some of there voices might not be that appropriate for children. The Kim Cattrall voices is very sexy and the other navtones I got was Gary Busey. Need I say more!

    Great idea though Aaron. I want in on your millions (for just agreeing with you, lol).
