TAKE ME TO YOUR LEADER Train commuters and other pedestrians walking on Chatsworth Avenue on Thursday evening had to do a double take. Was that really a robot cruising down the street headed into Pascal’s Restaurant? Yes, it really was. The robot is the creation of Robert Doornick, an uncle to Renee Powell, the owner of Pascal’s Restaurant. Robert was six years old when inspiration hit him. He was sitting in a Paris theater watching a cartoon with an evil 
robot. It was at this moment he knew that he would build his own robot--a friendly one! Today Robert is the Founder and President of International Robotics, Inc., a Larchmont based company leading the Techno-Marketing industry and specializing in Communication Robots for over thirty years. Robert’s robots Sico and the latest generation robot Millennia travel all over the world to entertain at major events hosted by Fortune 500 Companies and a variety of industries. Sico even landed a role in the movie Rocky IV. Robert, who started his career in special education, loves to bring the robots to schools as part of his “If You Can Dream” program. He hopes to inspire and empower children to pursue their dreams just like he did. More on Robert and his Company here. More
