Posted 20 Nov 2003 at 17:39 UTC by steve Share This

Kokoro Co, a Japanese robotics and animatronics company, is showing a new product at the International Robot Exhibition this year. They have created a humanoid robot called an Actroid. The Actroid is a female, humanoid robot that can blink her eyes, speak, and features several facial expressions. The robot is air-driven and apparently requires an external, 3.7kW compressor. The company has previously shown stylized, animtronic karakuri dolls that dance during a robotic museum exhibition.
