There are quite a number of humanoid robot kits available, which you could grab one for building your own humanoid robot, if the price was not a matter. Remo (Remote Brain) is another Humanoid Robot Kit that comes equipped with a number of gears including high-quality CCD cameras for image processing and pressure sensors on the feet for balance.
The Remo can be remotely controlled via Bluetooth. Meaning you can build an app installed on your Bluetooth-enabled computer, netbook or smart phone, to remotely control this humanoid bot. The Remo can be powered by lithium batteries or by AC adapter.
The Remo will need you to to dress it up with clothing, and also to get it to wear a mask on its face. Or else it’d turn out to be a scary beast walking around in your nest.
