I hope these are expensive, otherwise I'd be completely obsolete.

WOW! Now you can get a robot to do something in an hour what you can do yourself in two minutes!

Seriously though... cool.

It's pretty impressive how it can look at an object and determine how to grasp it properly.

Yeah, I think 25 minutes per towel is a bit much...

It's preforming a pretty complex task. Yes, simple by human standards but very complicated in computer terms. Trying to figure out how to grasp it is nearly impossible without lots of time spent studying how it's wrinkled up.

Today was a huge step forward in towel folding technology. I am no doubt this will revolutionize the future of mankind.
