Yes, she looks great, and the dress is gorgeous

Personally i would like to see more types of interaction with her instead of walking or other hardware upgrade. I think that upgrading the AI is much more important at this stage as the hands are already functional.
For example:
- manipulating objects with hands (take this, give me that...)
- awareness of other people position and face expressions (turn head to follow people, smile etc)
- awareness of obstacles when moving hands (if i stay too close to her and ask for directions would her hit my face?)
- achieving a goal (for example if her objective is set to take an object and cannot reach it then she could ask for help)
- create a flow of actions to be taken to complete objective (decomposing a larger objective in small ones and run them one by one until the main objective is achieved)

Walking can be done by using a weelchair

Also don't try to implement conversational skills. Many others have failed and it would be a waste of time at this time...

Hi all,

Here is the latest video of Aiko.
However, Aiko is badly damage since her last public appearance.
Aiko can not move until I fix her.

Anyway, Aiko singing video.

Mr Trung, next time you manage to get to Japan please let me know. I think we might be able to make some sort of proper music video featuring Aiko singing! It might be a world first and if we can get someone to lend an original song to Aiko to perform (I have several musician friends here who might be willing to do this) it might be a great way to gain extra publicity for your efforts.

Cheers,

Paul

Hi

It has been awhile since I post any video....
Anyway, here is a closer look of Aiko's BRAINS software.

Mr. Trung, I can only express my true amazement and admiration for the amount of work and talent you have. Aiko's AI continues to develop exponentially thanks to your long hours and dedication. Please don't give up! I wish you all the investors you can handle. Sadly, I can't be one of them.

Impressive is an understatement, to say the least. This is just excellent

Hi,

It has been awhile since I update.
Here is a video of my tongue system for future Aiko.
One of my many useless inventions, but hopefully, it will be
some use in the future. :o

You are simply incredible, Mr. Trung. You've managed to do more with Aiko by yourself on a budget than most professional robotics groups have. Has Honda, Kokoro Dreams, somebody approached you with a job offer yet? If they haven't, they need to.

Keep up the good work, and I look forward to any improvements that come Aiko's way in the future. Tell her everyone at FembotCentral says hi.

Hi

It has been awhile since I did a video demonstration.
This is a video demonstration, new face recognition using all 3 axis, x,y,z.
Another words, the system should recognize you even when your head is twisted.

Also, Aiko new voices for English and Japanese.

Aiko V2, hoping will be done in the spring of 2011. Aiko will have more facial expression, and the ability to cry/tear. Why did I add in that feature, don't know, just feel like it.

Amazing. Truly amazing. You are doing so much for the future. The voices sound great! The face recognition is a bigger step than most people realize. I'm so happy that you have never given up!

Wow! Awesome! Living the dream man.

I love the voices, they sound great!
Keep up the great work!

Hi all,

First video for the New Year. Finally, got the time to integrate The Brains new voice into Aiko.

Aiko in Oakley promotinal Video.
If you hear the static noise in the background, that is my $250 cheap video camcorder.
Happy New Year.

Her new voice flows great!

Hello everyone.
Merry Christmas and Happy New year.

Aiko V2 New faces finally reveal. The face is made of silicone as in Aiko V1.
Aiko V2 face has more facial movements, including closing the eyes, smile..etc..
Also dual cameras in the eyes. Including tear ducts and more sensors under the skin.

Any ideas to improvement on Aiko v2 or questions, please email to me.

I'm speechless!

it's amazing XD

Mr. Trung you continue to amaze! I'm so happy that you haven't given up and still push even harder. The new face is very beautiful and I like that she has a more mature look to keep the critics from any misplaced accusations. As I've said before, if there was one project I could fund it would be yours. Have you seen these scientific funding sites?
http://www.newscientist.com/blogs/cultu ... earch.html

You have an established track record now as a serious researcher and developer. I would hope that you could register with a funding group like Sciflies so that you can get some support to work your magic! This is one of those projects that many people would support but either don't know about any legitimate developments or would they would like to remain anonymous because of the controversial nature. At any rate, I wish you the best

Medical shool have been keeping me busy.
I finally have some time off to work on Aiko V2 head.
Yes, I am behind, but better late than never.

Le
Yes, the eyes are uneven, I need to fix the software later when I have the time.

I hope school is going very well for you! Thank you for the update and for sharing the latest video. I'm really happy to see that you are still working on her

And here I was hoping to be the first to report on it. Oh well.

In 20 years, I worry about the future for Japanese Women.

"In 20 years, I worry about the future for Japanese Women."

Why??

Extyr · Post by **Extyr** » Wed Nov 09, 2016 5:59 pm

So... what happened to this project exactly? I tried searching for recent news but I can't find anything newer than 3 years ago... Did LeTrung give up or will he emerge from the shadows with a functioning fembot like the mad scientists of myth?

P.S: Sorry for the necropost, but it doesn't seem to be much of an offense in this community.
