This week’s Newwrap is best described as leftovers. These stories are like the food remaining after a big dinner: I didn't want to throw them out because they could still make a good meal.
Again, the subjects range all over the place. A robot in a wedding dress walks down the runway at a fashion show in Japan is today’s entry. There are also underwater robots, surgical robots, and robots to help humans. Finally, from the beginning of the week, there are the robots that may advertise on the Moon. Quite an eclectic group of stories to look at for this week. I hope you enjoy them.
