Vstone Black Ox Will Steal Your Heart, Wallet

If there’s one complaint I have about humanoid robots, it’s how unapologetically servo-y they are. A slick black bodyshell goes a long way, as the Black Ox by Vstone robotics sexily demonstrates. He’s only 44 centimeters (under a foot and a half) tall, but he has a respectable 22 joints, gyro sensors, and an accelerometer, as well as glowy LED eyes and pointy horns. All in all, he’s pretty wicked looking, and as such, he’ll set you back a not entirely unexpected (but still fairly ludicrous) $7450 for one of the 15 remaining of the set of 30. He won’t be available until September, giving you plenty of time to win the lottery.
Full body pic and a video, after the jump.
