Hanool Robotics' Tiro When my boyfriend and I are ready to tie the knot, perhaps we should consider inviting robots to the wedding ceremony? A robot known as "Tiro" assisted the wedding of Seok Gyeong-Jae and his bride in Daejeon, South Korea.

"'This is Tiro, master of ceremonies for today's wedding,' the robot -- featuring a cone-shaped body, two arms and a dark-glassed face with eyes and a mouth of flashing lights -- said in front of smiling guests," reports Yahoo! News.

Manufacturer Hanool Robotics says that it is the world's first robot as MC at a wedding. "Tiro" wasn't the only robot there; smaller robots helped the couple by greeting guests and giving performances (singing, maybe?).
