For interest to Big O fans.
Just thought I would share something that I thought was kind of neat, I happened across it when I was reading a book on androids. The measurements will, I think, be awfully familiar to Big O fans. ;)
The section in question is discussing Honda's Asimo and Asimo's predecessor, P3.
"P3 is the size of a very small adult, standing 1.6 meters (5'1") tall, but despite the use of the very light metal magnesium in its construction, comes in at a hefty 130 kilograms (285 lbs)."
