Aiko The Female Robot: Inventor Le Trung Talks About His Perfect Woman (VIDEO)

Inventor Le Trung and his fem-bot Aiko are profiled in the The Sun. Scroll down and watch video reacting like a "real female" to Trung's touch:

Inventor Le Trung, 33, created Aiko, said to be "in her 20s" with a stunning 32, 23, 33 figure, shiny hair and delicate features.

She even remembers his favourite drink and does simple cleaning and household tasks...

...The fem-bot has a touch-sensitive face and body so she reacts if shown affection or hurt.

"Like a real female she will react to being touched in certain ways. If you grab or squeeze too hard she will try to slap you. She has all senses except for smell," he said.

Check out video of Trung and Aiko. One minute and six seconds into the video, Trung touches Aiko's chest and she says, "I do not like it when you touch my breasts!"

His previous and less perfect creations include one George Bush dummy president and Thomas Freedman, neologism word parrot.

There's already a George Bush dummy president...but he's real!

[marymarcus]

As long as the lips move and her voice sounds 10 million miles away...

[Forester]

I can feel it Dave.

[marymarcus]

Keep talking Hal.

[formerprosecutor]

well, since she evidently isn't ambulatory, she is basically a voice activated GPS / pre-programed computer. "android" is a bit of a stretch.

just what we need a automated receptionist; as if we love them on the phone now.

[rbenjamin]

Nice job - you just made Aiko cry!

[marymarcus]

Chatty Cathy wants her voice box back.

[steveRB]

If there is a mute button on this thing, where can I place my order?

[proudliberal4truth]

I'm confused...why create a female robot who complains if her br ea sts are touched? Not exactly the way I would have programmed her :)

[bubbuh]

love is strange

[rbenjamin]

people are stranger

[biskitdaddy]

may as well call the thing "WIFE", ha, ha!

[defdes]

"I do not like it when you touch my breasts!"
For some reason I don't think that was the first time Le Trung has heard that phrase.....

[bubbuh]

I bet he hasn't ever heard it in person. But, I'm certain he has a colossal Manga collection in which that and other stern phrases frequently feature.

[biskitdaddy]

Ha, ha! He could have saved his money and stuck with Rosey Palm!

[haramagoti]

Remarkable achievement, now if only she can be self-aware of her lack of awareness.

[rbenjamin]

Maybe she already is

[haramagoti]

Good point.

[noseysniper]

I now register the term "robosexual".

[rbenjamin]

next step...register all the robosexuals.

[MNinWI]

Do you suppose the religious right will create a controversy about whether robosexuals can marry?

[arnray]

Too late. Futurama beat you to it.

[rbenjamin]

Homosexuals call themselves gay. Q. What do people call robosexuals? A. Disturbing. Partial credit for lonely.

[RuffNReddy]

I wonder if this guy has a real wife or girlfriend?

[hairball68]

i'm going to take a wild guess here... no.

[rbenjamin]

InTrade agrees with you, 5% girlfriend.

[fiberoptimist]

But can she sing: Aiko aiko all day, jockomo feeno na na nay, jockomo feena nay.

[ploopy]

love it! "big chief wears a golden crown" wild chopatoulis!!!

[rbenjamin]

Anybody know how to say "creepy" in Japanese?

[SpinDown08]

Cleepy...

[proudliberal4truth]

You just won my post of the day award :)

[bwilder]

ROFLMAO !

[Zofomofo]

Damn! I just spit my tea.

[TotobiAyokoh23]

"Kimochi warui"

[rbenjamin]

Domo arigato

[DontBeFoolish]

Very nice. There is other technoloygy out there to smooth out the robots movements as well as enable her/him to walk. WoW, I am excited about where the world is going. Finally some forward motion in this world.

[Pdubya]

Now, if we could create our politicians....

[Isis N]

I suggest you take a look at the movie Appleseed. There's a semblance of that in there. Good movie, too, by the way.
