Japanese engineers have continued to surprise the world of its innovative approaches to applied robotics. Today in Tokyo, was submitted to the robot, whose task is to demonstrate the fashionable attire and participating in demonstrations of collections of Japanese fashion designers.
The robot is placed in a graceful female models, with an extremely smooth and neat features, reminiscent of Japanese anime characters. Inside the robot is just 42 individual motor, which makes movement and plastic robot-like movements of these models.
Today, researchers from the National Institute of Advanced Science and Technology provided the robot HRP-4C in the Tokyo exhibition center, but later robot model will be at the institute and all concerned in the development will be able to read it closer. According to Shuji Kadzity leading developer robot, HRP-4C was 153 cm tall, 43 kilograms of weight (including battery), and is modeled on the young Japanese girl.
The robot is free to sit in front of cameras, smiling at the pictures or defilirovat on the podium.

"The robot is made in the style of anime, and this was done intentionally, if we decided to just make a car in the image of man, there would not have been the special highlights," - said Shuji Kadzita.
While the robot is available only for demonstration purposes, plans sales in the foreseeable future, with the Japanese engineers are not available. March 23, HRP-4C also debuted at the Tokyo show.
