Robots at the World Expo 2010 Shanghai play football, practice tai chi, play the violin, prepare Chinese dishes and care for the elderly. Robots created by a Chinese farmer can pour tea and paint pictures.

Global designers of robots are making them more capable, powerful and affordable, so they will play more roles in more sectors, from manufacturing to health care, and they can help around the house.

Now Toyota, the world’s biggest car maker, and Canon, the biggest camera maker, have joined research and development to make robots a practical reality, like PCs.

“ The World Expo is a unique opportunity to demonstrate French technology,” says Bruno Maisonnier, chief executive of Aldebaran Roboics, which shows Nao robots in the France Pavilion.

The French-based company aims to promote robots in the general public market starting from late 2011, with entertainment or learning functions at a reasonable price according to Maisonnier.,

Visitors to the Japan Pavilion are struck by Toyota’s dextrous Partner Robot playing the Chinese folk song “ Jasmine Flower” on the violin. Other robots play other instruments, but violin is the most complicated.

Many people were so enchanted(使入迷) by the robotic musician that they overlooked other Partner Robots, designed to be personal assistants especially for Japan’s aging population. One can even carry passengers.
