During his visit to Japan, at the Tokyo Miraikan Science Expo, President Barack Obama had a brief encounter with Honda's huma**id robot ASIMO, The Wall Street Journal reports.
ASIMO, which stands for Advanced Step in In**vative Mobility, took a bow and then passed a soccer ball to the President, who said (http://blogs.wsj.com/japanrealtime/2014/04/24/obama-plays-soccer-with-robot/) the robot's soccer skills were "pretty impressive".
