The HRP-4C Robot is a diva-bot in the making. I'm not sure if this bot is talented or just plain creepy.
This is Japan’s first robotic singer that looks and sounds so realistic that it’s scary. Her lips, breath and facial expressions are very lifelike. This mechanized diva even blinks naturally! However, with today’s autotuned music and plastic-looking celebrities, maybe singing robots aren’t all that out of the ordinary.
Take a look at the video to watch the pop star HRP-4C Robot in action.
