Beaten to the Punch!
Yesterday, I did a pet blessing for a local animal rescue group. A friend (erco from the Parallax Forums) suggested a blessing of the bots. So, I decided to look on the web...The Dalai Lama beat me to it, though!

Disney's Jimmy
A Hybrid Hydrostatic Transmission and Human Safe Haptic
Telepresence Robot from DisneyResearchHub. What does that mean? Disney Research
has created Jimmy, a robot that moves at lifelike speed. It uses air/water
actuators and can operate safely with humans. The version shown is controlled
by a human puppeteer and that is why it is referred to as a telepresence robot.
Disney Research is an international network of research
labs, with the mission to push the scientific and technological forefront of
innovation at The Walt Disney Company.
