    Isaac Asimov once said, “I do not fear computers, I fear the lack of them.”  Certainly, we live in a digital age that Asimov would approve.  We have robots that will vacuum and clean our floors (iRobot and Scoomba), navigate us through highways (GPS), and even make a grocery list when we need to restock our refrigerators.  MDM has found the newest and hottest robot models that are sure to make you smile.

    MarkDownMom’s Top 3 ‘Robots’:

    1) Gibson Robot Guitar.  Gibson has created the first robotic guitar.  The Gibson guitar tunes itself (tune control bridge) so that you will never robot guitarhave to worry about playing a sour note.  Also, the Gibson guitar contains a lithium battery that when charged for 90 minutes allows the player to use for 200 tunings.  Since this is the first ‘run’ with the robotic guitar, supplies are limited.  The Gibson Robot Guitar is valued at $2,499.
