Quote

Imagine if someone, somewhere managed to find the exact formula for producing the most perfectly awful example of the uncanny valley (say, for a horror movie or something). Now, accept the fact that this organization is the Japanese Science and Technology Agency, and that they managed to produce the most disturbing machine you've ever seen, without even realizing it.

Quote

The 33 kilogram CB2 is literally beyond words in its freakiness, not only in its nailing of the uncanny valley, but in its description. Apparently it emulates "the physical ability of a 1- or 2-year-old toddler, can turn over and stand up with assistance," has 51 compressed air-powered actuators, and has 200 tactile sensors in its "skin." It sends so many shivers up our spine to think of the CB2's lifeless putty coating as "skin" that it's a wonder we're even able to continue typing.

Blah, stupid engadget, you have to go to Youtube to watch the vid.

oh jesus oh jesus oh jesus

that is by FAR AND AWAY the most skin-crawling thing i've ever seen, kill it with fire

it's like taking a hike deep into the uncanny valley and finding it full of rape-eyed hillbillies

That sounds like the most useless robot of all time.

Well, it's true. What's the point of a robot that just rolls around and makes gaga noises and needs help to stand? Furbies have more capability than that piece of crap.

Their algorithms are insane. I mean it might not be as efficient as honda's models(which it dosent aim to be..) at displacement but i mean the wobbly leg emulation is like a take on more lifelike/random/error induced movement. Look at the thigh/leg/feet articulation its fucking awesome. The face is cool too. Id hit it.

Dude, you own multiple fleshlights. How could that thing creeep you out?

G The Resurrected · « **Reply #25 on:** June 04, 2007, 08:03:46 PM »

fleshlights make a queefing sound, that thing makes a scary sound. Plus if you close your eyes you can imagine that its something its meant to imitate. As that pedobot makes freaky servo noises and squeels

Mupepe · « **Reply #26 on:** June 04, 2007, 08:08:20 PM »

are there any sexy fembots or something on the market?

BlueTsunami · « **Reply #27 on:** June 04, 2007, 08:11:06 PM »

The fact that I just found out Bz closes his eyes to better simulate penetrating the female vagina through use of his fleshlight doesn't sit to well with me.
