“Halloween” is said to reach 1.5 times the economic scale of the previous year in 2015. Some people say that they spend the money they have saved over the course of a year on Halloween costumes. The costume suit suit "ASIMO Robot Costume Suit" that can become Honda's ASIMO may be perfect to stand out in such a competitive Halloween costume world.

ASIMO is the world's first full-scale bipedal walking robot developed by Honda. In the early stages, it was called an "automatic machine" that can maintain its own posture, but now it collects information such as the movements of people around it with multiple sensors, and from the collected information it takes its next action without human intervention. It has evolved to the level of "autonomous machines" that judge. He is 130 cm tall, weighs 48 kg, and has a maximum speed of 9 km / h.

ASIMO Robot Costume Suit is a costume suit made for ASIMO fans. When you wear it and appear in public, you can get more attention than you think. If you dance like ASIMO, you will surely be praised, but just walking will make you happy enough.

The Japan Trend Shop has released a demo video of wearing a suit and delivering pizza to home. As far as I can see from this video, unlike the real Honda ASIMO, which is good at going up and down stairs, it seems that the wearer of ASIMO Robot Costume Suit cannot go down the stairs alone. Perhaps I can't see my feet at all. Unfortunately, the performance of the suit does not seem to reach the level of an "autonomous machine" that acts without human intervention.

Corresponding height is up to 180 cm. The maximum speed depends on the efforts of the people inside, but it will be dangerous to run too fast because the field of view is narrow. Probably not as fast as real ASIMO. Also, you can't take off your suit by yourself, so you have to work with someone to help you at the Halloween party. If someone who helps you goes somewhere, you will have to stay at ASIMO for a while, so be careful.
