About those androids like HRP4C, actroid or so, I wonder where do their charge or communication port locate. Any one can provide any pictures?

Err... No one knows?

You have to give us some time to respond before giving up, this isn't exactly the most active forum on the net.

I wish I did know how they did that. I bet it is a trade secret. Either that, or it is just something they never though to advertise. If you find anything, let us know.

I remember an article saying that HRP-4C's face was acting weird in her first presentation because of all the bluetooth signals from the cell phones of the journalists interfering with her. So I bet commands are transported wirelessly. No room for large memory modules and actual computing power. Probably most of her inner body is just batteries and motors? And the recharge port just has to be somewhere in the butt! I've read enough stories here to know that this is the only logical place to put such a thing

Ah, wireless connection. Could be the method.
And about charging, may be there could be wireless charging as well. Some shavers do charge when they are put onto the base.

Electric tooth brushes, some shavers, and other objects that often get wet, use a special technique for charging.
This is called Inductive Charging.
My electric toothbrush does this, and it is very cool. Essentially, the toothbrush and the base form a two-part transformer, with the base having one part of the transformer and the toothbrush having the other. When you slide the toothbrush onto the base, the complete transformer is created and charge can flow. The base contains one of the coils and the metal bar. The toothbrush contains the second coil. When you drop the toothbrush onto the base, you create the complete transformer!

Some speculate we can charge more objects this way. Imagine walking into your house, and instantly all your mobile devies (cell phone, game players, etc.) start charging and stay charged until you leave.

Hmmm. That would be one hell power of electric-magnet wave field, will cancer visit you soon?

Some nasty scene of ways that some gynoids charge themselves came to my mind. hehehehe...
