Two members of the ASIMO team were invited to assist the Japanese colleagues during the official state visit of Japanese Premier Junichiro Koizumi to the Czech Republic. ASIMO not only demonstrated classic features as dancing or walking up and down stairs, it also showed that it can be a great goodwill ambassador, as ASIMO greeted guests during a dinner party. Moreover, ASIMO visited the Czech National Museum to pay tribute to Karel Capek, the writer who introduced the word robot to the world.
