| Walking with the tray |
|
While carrying the tray, ASIMO uses its entire body to control the tray to prevent spilling of the objects on the tray. Even if the tray slides and is about to fall, ASIMO’s wrist sensors detect the weight differences on its hands and automatically stop walking before it drops the tray.

| Putting the tray on a table |
|
When the force sensors on its wrists detect reduction of the load on the wrists as the tray touches the surface of the table, ASIMO sets the tray on the table. By using the entire body to set the tray down, ASIMO can work with tables of different heights.

Being able to handle a cart freely, ASIMO is now capable of carrying heavy objects
ASIMO is capable of handling a cart freely while maintaining an appropriate distance from the cart by adjusting the force of its arms to push a cart using the force sensor on its wrists. Even when the movement of the cart is disturbed, ASIMO can continue maneuvering by taking flexible actions such as slowing down or changing directions.
(The maximum load is 10 kg.)
