Robot Rising
Japanese researchers have or better yet, are building this creepy ass hell robot baby to study cognitive movement. Asada’s team, which are the inventors and builders, came up with "Affetto", which can produce a wide range of facial expressions by moving actuators in its face which create the creepy facial movements. It can look inquisitive, happy, surprised, upset and more, by tilting its eyebrows, moving its jaw, panning its eyes and tilting its head. Its eyeballs are equipped with cameras and it has microphones and tactile sensors embedded in its silicone skin,giving this thing a pretty realistic appearance.This project is playing an effort to develop a full bodied robot that resembles a human as most realistically as possible. In my other post you see what our future world may look like and if your a fan of this setting you can thank Japanese researchers for doing so.

that's the creepiest thing I have ever seen.
urghh they are sure getting more and more realistic
That's so awesome!
Japanese always come up with the best stuff!
Oh japan won't you learn this will lead to your doom!
Scary... oO
I dont like robots at all but that one was pretty impressive.
The more human like a robot gets, the more uncomfortable I get with it...
would be scarred if this took off
i watched something on TV a long time back about this when it was still under development, didn't look as lifelike as this though
pure fail. we should be creating sex robots
dot dot dot... It will enter my dreams and haunt me.
Creepy. Whatever will the Japanese think of next?
Followed.
Uncanny valley never fails.
god damn androids
Androids are taking over.
it is looking good.
But creeps me like "big baby in toystory3"
Japan=crazy
this is disturbing...
Creepy...
We seriously need to stop those Japanese people and their robots. This is just getting ridiculous.
looks cool
looks creepy, but somehow realistic...
JAPAN!!! They really like creepy humanoid robots for some reason haha. Great blog btw, following!
holy sh**, what will they do next?
oh sh-! indeed creepy!
Japan redefines creepy
good ol japan
I am not sure if i am trusting the japan right now. those are just a little creepy
Wow, these things get better and better every day. It was only a month ago or so that I saw an article on some women robots the Japanese made which I thought were pretty good. This blows them out of the water though!
I remember seeing they made a robot secretary in japan that can show emotion as well!
What has science done
Haha, japan are at the forefront of everything. And I'd have to agree with the "creepy" part of the title! Thanks for the post.
well, i know what i'm going to be having nightmares about for a while now.
One thing comes to mind, I Robot
that is proper creepy...
Every robot the Japanese make is always creepy, I don't care how complex and intellegent it is. Rule one should be to reduce the creep factor down to safe levels!
man, when the japanese have those things walking around ill be hiding inside
Very VERY creepy
i liked this robot,motion of eyes and mouth is real.
That thing is going to give me nightmares.
Okay... Wasn't planning on sleeping tonight anyways... O_O
That is creepy
Whoa...that thing is freaking sketchy. I hope some horror movies jump on this technology!
i didn't think it was that creepy!
aaahh that was gross!
Seems pretty normal for japan. I wonder when they'll turn it into a sex doll, or have girls wearing heels crush its head.
that was creepy indeed :/
wha that creeped me out!
That is SO creepy man and this comes from a Zerg player. It takes a lot to creep me out. :P
That robot baby looks freaky. Imagine they made a Chucky doll like that.
ok im scared :|
What will the Japanese do next?
kill it with FIRE
Creeps the heck out of me..
awesome and creppy at the same time ! ^^
