Hi all, We've had a great event last Saturday in Luxembourg (Europe). GASTON, our latest Mindstorms realization has been presented during the first ROBOCUP contest. GASTON is able to express feelings through facial movements. He may localize a sound source in space and has many other features. He passed on TV and will appear in Press this week.
