Japan's New Model (Robot)

Japan got the first female fashion robot who will hit the Catwalk at the Tokyo Fashion Week.The HRP-4C robot is 158cm tall and weighs 43kg including battery. The robot is actually not tall enough for a fashion model. The Japanese are in love with humanoid robots and every year they get better. The HRP-4C already has some smooth movements, but the Actroid already had skin. Now they AIST researchers need to combine the looks of the Actroid and the movements and technology of the HRP-4C and they got something. The Tokyo Fashion Week starts next week.
