Japanese Robot Carries Luggage - RoboPorter at Kita Kyushu Airport (VIDEO) [Edit]

The Japanese are in with another robot first, the RoboPorter is a thus far free service that is being tested at Kita Kyushu airport in southwest Japan. He’s not very cute and doesn’t seem to be much for bending over. It looks pretty much like the bending and lifting is up to you and RoboPorter is just the cross terminal schlepper. But who could argue with the price? 

RoboPorter appears to be a free service and, as with most Japanese services, there's no tipping required. Tell that to your non-robotic rolling rental cart... then again, acting suspiciously in airports is not recommended these days. Unless you're 4-ft tall and green, that is. (inventorspot)
