By published

Casio's latest rugged handset, the $199 G'zOne Commando is its first to run Android. Available on Verizon, the smartphone is also designed to meet demanding 810G military specifications.

The G'zOne Commando can be completely submerged in water 30 minutes, dropped 4 feet, scratched, and exposed to the cruel elements like 40 mph winds. We do our best to test Casio's claims in the  torture test video below and our full review of the G'zOne.

U1208 Lab at Inserm, which studies cognitive sciences and robot-human communication. The team works with two robots. A number of emotions can be reproduced with Reeti using an interface that is easy to use by medical staff. Research with Reeti is led by a child psychiatrist to encourage communication with autistic children. Children with autistic disorders concentrate more with a robot who can endlessly, and without getting bored, repeat attitudes that represent easily identifiable emotions. Reeti can also talk. This robot would be an ideal neuropsychiatric medium. (Photo by: BSIP/Universal Images Group via Getty Images)
