Survey: What’s Your Favorite Fictional Robot?
Writing by Evan Ackerman on Wednesday, 3 of November , 2010 at 1:51 am
Willow Garage has noticed that people like to name their robots, and that most of the time (at least where PR2 is concerned), the name is that of some fictional robot. So, they’re wondering what the right name is for a robot, if you’re one of those people who thinks that endowing an occasionally animate object with a name is a good idea… They’ve got a survey listing their top fictional robot choices, and they’d like you to tell them what you think.
Why? Well, you definitely won’t be entered into a drawing to win your very own PR2, which is sad, but “why not” is a pretty good reason too. I won’t tell you who I voted for, but I did include an angry comment wondering why I didn’t see Tom Servo or Crow on the list, and hoping that next time they’d include GIR.
Complete the survey (it takes like 15 seconds) and include your own angry comments by clicking here.

Great information and number of subjects that you include. Even the comments could be insightful and informative.
