Japanese auto giant Nissan Motor unveils a prototype model robot, the "BR23C", which uses crash prevention technology to avoid obstacles - for the use of preventing car crashes -- at Asia's largest electronics trade show CEATEC in Chiba, suburban Tokyo on September 30, 2008.
The Biomimetic Car Robot Drive, or BR23C, is a metre-high duckling-shaped robot with a sensor that recreates the highly complex eyes of a bumblebee. The robot can detect an object up to two metres (2.2 yards) away in a 180-degree radius and swerves away on wheels when a person or an object suddenly appears in front of it.
