For what it's worth, in the promotional video, they have folks writing python code -- so I think this is in fact Python-relevant. That doesn't make it appropriate for this list, but I think a programmable-in-python robot is pretty cool, in any case.

Unless they have different versions of that video with different programming langues edited in -- that would be quite impressive, though!
