Science
fiction has predicted the androids for many years and
scientists are working hard to create artificial humans
for decades. See some of the most realistic and bizarre

Humanoid Talking Robot
A
simple demonstration of the Avicenna / Ibn Sina humanoid
robot, that I programmed in early 2009 using the robot
physically created by Hanson Robotics (www.hansonrobotics.com).
It has 30 motors in the face, and 30 motors in the body
(neck, shoulders, arms and fingers). The eyes move (including
eyelids & eyelashes) and each eyeball has a color camera
in it, to recognize who it is talking to (using face recognition
software I created). The legs don't move.

Robot looks just like its human master
Robot
looks just like its master The first Geminoid Summit was
held at the Advanced Telecommunications Research Institute
International (ATR) in Nara, Japan, last March. Scharfe
attended with his robot double to compare notes with two
other Geminoid owners, including the inventor of the Geminoid
concept, Hiroshi Ishiguro. According to Scharfe, technologies
to make robots more ubiquitous in daily life, such as
bipedal walking, better navigation and obstacle avoidance,
grasping, image recognition and speech synthesis are improving
rapidly. So what will happen when we seriously begin to
combine them all?
