Robotics: Kokoro Dreams' "Actroid"

Post by KOS-MOS » Wed Nov 19, 2003 1:31 pm

Today Japanese Kokoro Dreams and the Osaka University present a relastic looking female robot at the International Robot Exhibition 2003.

The "Actroid" or Actress Robot can speak, blink with her eyes and feature several facial expressions. The face looks similar to computer animated humans like in the Final Fantasy Movie. Kokoro Dreams has a product page on the Actriod.
A little bit of progress that is sure to brighten your day :)

The aforementioned link does work; just click on the camera image. Here is another link with a couple more pics: http://it.lycos.com.cn/arts/ityd/itydxt/1197229.html

This is indeed great news!
