Robot video: Lifelike Humanoid Repliee Q2
Here is a follow up on the female robot video I posted a few days ago. Repliee Q2 has produced some waves online, as the robot is the result of a project that aims for realism in expression and behavior. Q2 can’t walk, but has 13 DoF in the head for facial expressions according to Intelligent Robotics Laboratory at Osaka University — the makers of RQ2. In addition she has the ability to move the hands and torso, resulting in a total of thirty-one DoF in the upper body.
Here’s a video of Q2 doing an interview. While I was watching the video a person behind me asked “Why are you watching an interview you don’t understand?” — not realizing that Q2 was a robot. Awesome.
