Researchers say that the best way to overcome this problem is to study the human brain and try and create an artificial brain that copies its functions.

Nevertheless, scientists have already overcome other problems such as mobility. For example, Honda's ASIMO robot can walk, run and climb stairs without any problems. Also, robots can now look more human thanks to roboticist David Hanson's invention of a skin covering called Frubber, which has been used on robots such as Repliee Q2. Language may be another obstacle as robots have to be able to understand figurative speech such as idioms, as well as gestures and emotional responses.

All in all, experts are divided as to when robot assistants may become a reality. Some say five years, others say fifty. Who knows – soon household robots may be as common as home computers.
