Awesome little robot

I’ve built robots before, and I probably will again in the future. I ran across a post about this robot today in my feed reader and I absolutely adore him!

The Yellow Drum Machine robot’s sole purpose in life is to avoid obstacles, find a flat surface, and then to play a tune on it with little drum sticks. He tests it out, and if it has a good sound, he records a sample of himself playing the tune, and plays it back and plays along with it, building up cool little percussive tunes.
Check out the video, not only is the idea a cool one, but the robot itself it just plain cute! Check him out in action:
