Photos: Robots for all occasions

If you want a gambling buddy who is programmed not to cheat, then this is the robot for you. National Instruments has created a robot that can play dice with you and tell who won. But don't think that just because it's a robot it won't rub your loss in your face. This guy will jump up and down in victory if he rolls a winning number.
