Pioneer not only does in-car entertainment systems, it apparently develops robots as well. Oddly resembling the good-natured younger brother of HAL 9000,The Pioneer Penguinbot aims to assist you in your daily commute via a variety of warnings, including upcoming red lights, going above the legal speed limit, and even informing you when you start to drive around aimlessly in unfamiliar territory.It warns when you're getting lost or passing by some point of interest, and also be the little avian friend you dreamed of every night since you were a child.Of course the Penguinbot is currently in the prototype stage,a fully developed version could rake in the big bucks for Pioneer as men would actually queue up to purchase a front-seat driver instead of listening to the nagging wife who's sitting behind with the kids:)))
