One step closer to romo androids. I approve.

― Leon C. (Ex Leon), Wednesday, 22 June 2005 15:14 (twenty years ago)

But given Q1's reported glitch-related "spasms" at the expo, it may be a while before androids are escorting tour groups or looking after children

AWESOME.

"Internal sensors allow the android to react 'naturally.' It can block an attempted slap, for example..."

Good to know.

― andy --, Wednesday, 22 June 2005 15:16 (twenty years ago)

Because really, the first thing I think when I see an android is, "HOO WHEE, I'MMA SLAP THAT ANDROID!!!"

― The Ghost of Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Wednesday, 22 June 2005 15:17 (twenty years ago)

"Slap My Switch Up!"

― Stone Monkey (Stone Monkey), Wednesday, 22 June 2005 15:19 (twenty years ago)

I'm mad that they don't have a picture of Dude With Suspicious Manga Hair getting his slap blocked.

― The Ghost of Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Wednesday, 22 June 2005 15:19 (twenty years ago)

Why do they have gloves on her? Maybe she has dude hands.

I sense PUT THE SKIN BACK ON! GAWD!

― The Ghost of Napoleon Dynamite (Dan Perry), Wednesday, 22 June 2005 15:40 (twenty years ago)

I see horrified people.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 22 June 2005 15:42 (twenty years ago)

Why is she dressed like Martika? I wish they updated her style.

I'm surprised no one's mentioned the Kaga-as-curious-geekman quality of the droid demonstrator.

― donut e-goo (donut), Wednesday, 22 June 2005 16:52 (twenty years ago)

IF MEMORY SERVES ME RIGHT, SHE IS SUPPOSED TO TELL ME "YOU'D HIT IT"

He's not wearing the appropriate Adam Ant goes insane(r) outfits, though.

aw nertz. free robot sex has broken this thread.

― kingfish, Thursday, 23 June 2005 00:39 (twenty years ago)

The important question is: why are there flat, fake looking liquor bottles on the wall behind them?

― walter kranz (walterkranz), Thursday, 23 June 2005 00:43 (twenty years ago)

to remind the press and the public that if there's one thing that japanese prototype fuckdroids like to do, it's to get crunk and drrrrrrty

― kingfish, Thursday, 23 June 2005 01:19 (twenty years ago)

It puts the silicon gel on its skin, or it gets the soldering iron again!

― Trayce (trayce), Thursday, 23 June 2005 02:31 (twenty years ago)

― kingfish (Kingfish), Thursday, 23 June 2005 05:45 (twenty years ago)

"Repliee Q1" is Japanese for The Beginning of the End.

Suggests a whole new meaning for "uncanny valley"

iron chef! now if the android can cook... AND DO DISHES... i'd much rather that than android buttsex. no offense to The Japanese Robot Girl.

― msp (mspa), Thursday, 28 July 2005 20:42 (twenty years ago)

The realdoll can't block a slap though. Some of us like a little fight in 'em.

― I know some come from the reality (wetmink), Thursday, 28 July 2005 20:48 (twenty years ago)

I "met" the Japanese robot girl at the Expo. Kinda creepy. A little too far into the uncanny valley for me.

― Laura H. (laurah), Thursday, 28 July 2005 21:01 (twenty years ago)

Hey Japanese Robot Girl! What did the five fingers say to the face?

― Rick James (Dan Perry), Thursday, 28 July 2005 21:08 (twenty years ago)

(Oh, I gues you heard that one before.)

that robot girl is creepy, but yet the possibilities for extra modifications, boggles the mind

― disfunktion, Friday, 12 August 2005 06:39 (twenty years ago)

"uncanny valley" sounds dirty (like "tin can alley")

"The robot can serve to provide information in department stores and museums or read stories to children; it’s capable of both education and entertainment functions," said KITECH scientist Baeg Moon-hong, part of the team that created the robot. "The Ever-2, which will have improved vision and ability to express emotions and can sit or stand, will be debuted towards the end of the year."

y'see, she's fully functional!
