Yamaha Singing Robot

Meet the Japan's hottest up-and-coming pop star: she's cute, edgy, and demure, and has a great voice.

She's also a robot.

HRP-4C is a life-like girlbot programmed with Yamaha's Vocaloid voice synthesis software -- which means not only can she sing better than Britney, she's probably saner too.
