Engineers from Japan have taught the human-like robot Musashi to drive a car. Android can spin the steering wheel, push the pedals and even recognize obstacles and brake in front of them.

Scientists at the JSK Lab at the University of Tokyo have been working for several years to create humanoid robots that could drive a car. And now a video has appeared online showing a short ride of a robot on an electric car Toyota COMS.

It is known that the controls of the machine have not undergone any modifications. In the video, you can observe how the cable system connects many joints in the body of the robot, and they move at the expense of electric motors. Despite the low speed of the car, android took a long time to see a pedestrian in front of him and stop. This means that the robot is still being finalized.
