Girl Robots: You've Come a Long Way Baby!


Just how far have fembots or female androids come?

A long, long way, as we discovered in these amazing videos of the newest female androids, or "actroids", a humanoid robot.

The Kokoro Company of Japan introduced the first actroid in 2003 at the International Robot Exhibition.

Kororo says you can rent their "elegant, feminine, and lively" actroids at a "reasonable price with a variety of costumes".
