A humanoid machine called Apollo has just taken a tentative, but significant step forward in the robot revolution.

The 5'8 " tall robot performed the first public demonstration in a real-world setting of a real world task.

Apollo can lift more than 25kg and potentially perform repetitive tasks that are, in the words of humanoid robot developers, too "dull, dirty or dangerous" for humans.
