Video Sunday: Fashion Model Android
Writing by Evan Ackerman on Sunday, 22 of March , 2009 at 10:05 am
Much of the time, human fashion models end up at the bottom of the Uncanny Valley. So it’s only fitting, I suppose, for there to be an android fashion model down there to keep the humans company and make them all seem a little bit more… Well… Human. The HRP-4C humanoid research and development robot is designed to emulate an average Japanese young woman, who I guess is just over 5 feet tall and weighs a scant 95 pounds. She’s got a battery that gives her a 20 minute runtime, and is able to walk, talk, and respond to voice commands. And from the sound of things, one of those voice commands is “look sultry:”
Oooooh baby.
