Female robot heads for catwalk
Japanese scientists have unveiled a 'female' robot that is so realistic it is to appear in a Tokyo fashion show.
The robot, named HRP-4C, has 30 motors in its body that allow it to walk and move its arms, reports the BBC.
She also has eight motors on her face to create realistic 'human' expressions like anger and surprise.
HRP-4C is designed to look like a typical Japanese woman. She's 5ft 2ins tall, weighs 95 pounds and has chin-length black hair with bangs.
Unveiling the robot at Tsukuba City, north east of Tokyo, maker Hirohisa Hirukawa said she "had an ordinary figure".
At a demonstration, the robot waddled out, blinking and said, "Hello, everyone", in a tiny feminine voice as its mouth moved.
HRP-4C will go on sale for around ?142,000 after making her special catwalk appearance in Tokyo.
And its programming technology will be made public so other people can come up with fun moves for the robot, the scientists said.
