Nao is (apparently) the first French android to be sold for the mainstream market. It’s a cute little robot that can listen and talk to you, danse, tell stories and read your email from the internet using wifi. Is this the next nabaztag?
Alice, programmable virtual world to teach computer science
Alice is a free software to create simple programs in a 3D
virtual world, thanks to the assisted drag-and-drop-based programming language. You can drop 3D objects and avatars to the scene, visualize their methods in real-time and add parametered calls to these methods to your script. I think this is a good way to learn computing science.
