How would you like a music player that sings to you, nods its head, and even winks?

These robotic heads come from the Korea Institute of Science and Technology’s Center for Intelligent Robotics, where they were created to entertain the elderly through song. The performance gets more complex—and more bizarre—as the song goes on, and the bots are surprisingly good at conveying that certain feeling of despair. (Enjoy, elderly!) By far the hardest thing to understand, though, is why four heads would stop at the exact moment when everybody head-bangs to “Bohemian Rhapsody.” Talk about a missed opportunity.

Yeah, a song saying "I don't wanna die! Sometimes wish I'd never been born at all!" will perk those elderly right up.

This was pretty darn amusing. Nice find, Miss C!

If, like me, you came here hoping to see some robots do Wayne's World-esque head banging, you will be greatly disappointed.

Good thing old folks are hard of hearing - all that squeaking would drive people batty...
