Asimo makes his return in a brand-building goodwill trek through Canada. In this spot he’s studying human weaknesses for an eventual robo-takeover. He is a witness of people playing street hockey, barbecuing, ice fishing and other stuff.
It also has musical talent. Check Asimo out conducting the Detroit Symphony Orchestra to raise awareness for music education.
