The Xbox Kinect controller is rapidly becoming a hacker's favorite, but I'm pretty sure this is the first humanoid robot which uses a Kinect to follow every move you make.
Named Veltrobot after its builder Terry Veltrop, the robot does a pretty good job of copying its maker's moves. The main problem is see after watching the video, is that those moves aren't exactly going to get Veltrop a dancing part in the Michael Jackson Story.
Still, the robotics part of his creation is pretty impressive.
