Creepy Mimic Robot

"What you’re looking at above is Actroid-F, Kokoro Co. Ltd. and ATR‘s latest iteration of the creepy humanoid robot that can mime the operator’s facial expressions and head movements with unbelievable (but not quite human) accuracy. Her current job is to act as “as an observer in hospitals to gauge patient reactions.” We guess that’s one way to get around euthanasia laws. See what we mean in the video after the break." - Engadget.com

Watch the full video here. Hat tip: Vinny

it's from an old Robot Chicken episode: some super scientist builds a robot that can do all of life's daily labor and everyone dismisses it after he can't answer the first question : "Yes...but can you f**k it?" lmao i wouldnt doubt either that the japanese are developing some kinda loli sexbot in the shadows too haha

I'm with wings. I've watched enough anime that I didn't even have to view the video to know its makers true intentions. Gotta love the Japanese.
