A friend of mine has a theory that if one day the world was taken over by robots, Japan would be spared, because they "get" robots. Hollywood rarely makes a movie about a good friendly robot, rather it's all about evil robots short-circuiting and taking over the world, or robots becoming human and then good. Japan on the other hand welcomes robots gladly. From helping take care of the elderly, to Doraemon (the friendly cartoon robot cat who helps people), to the simple love affair with vending machines (yep, I've seen vending machine underwear), Japan is not afraid of some automated help.
I've been documenting my experiences with robots, (with pure glee, let me assure you) and here is a sampling.

And lastly, the beer-bot. For the perfect pour every time. Photographed in Kobe, seen everywhere.
