Based on a 5 year old girl, this robot is supposed to be more lifelike than ever.

Waiting for the "I'd hit it" comments.

Ick. What’s wrong with an ordinary walker? Or how about a service dog?

Very creepy on many levels.

I attended a 2 week class with a 20’s Japanese woman. Her infatuation with robots was extreme. Her art work was all about robots. She is representative of her culture that is bonkers over robots.

What is a boffin?
