HRP-4C – the japanese robot fashion model
As a kid i often watched Star Trek and one of my favorite characters was Data, from the Next Generation series. I always wondered when we will be able to build an android just like Data.
Well, it seems that we are one step closer. Although far away from Data’s capabilities, HRP-4C, the 158 cm tall japanese robot fashion model can walk, talk, smile with the help of the 42 incorporated electronic motors and will show up on the catwalk sometime next week.
