the 01 festival going on and we have reroutes. expect slowing through the area. another bridge crossing as an alternate. no major issues and rob, i can make out the hills, but i feel like a curtain of fog and low clouds. >> acting like a blanket and 60s across the board towards lunchtime. and a little bit of rain. 73 in oakland across the across the north bay. could see a few showers. for the weekend forecast, muggy as we move into it tomorrow and

sunday. a bit cooler midday sunday and could see showers on the seven-day forecast. >> i'm talling than this robot. >> i will lead it in here. >> this is the pr 2. we talked about having expensive gadget fridays. this is $400,000. you shouldn't have to build a robot. iphone ap writers don't build an iphone and write an ap. this is the same idea. the guys build this robot, $400,000. you can get a discount if you

are an experienced robot person. they sell it to companies and researchers and yesterdays. and speed the video up. here's the thing. robots, the very task that we do every day are complex when it comes to art vishl intelligence and looking at you and standing in place and those spoorts of things. this scans the room.

we had other robots in the room. our cameras are robots as well. >> having a stare down. >> there is camera 2. >> a lot like a robot. >> why are we here? >> we're haven't figured that out. >> the most expensive at $400,000 for the willow garage. that's it for today. thanks for joining us. #
