Nother one this is really cool.

Video: Japan's New Goateed Geminoid Robot Is Uncomfortably Realistic:


The latest Geminoid robot is one of the most realistic, and thus creepiest, android we've ever seen. The skin, hair, goatee (!), and facial expressions are real enough to fool you for a few seconds while it sinks in that something very, very weird is going on.

This specific model is called the Geminoid DK, and it comes from the same studio that gave us the robotic actress, Geminoid F. The DK is the first Geminoid model that's based on a non-Japanese person (in this case, Associate Professor Henrik Scharfe of Denmark's Aalborg University) and also the first bearded model (if you consider a goatee a beard, which in my full-bearded opinion is debatable).

Thats really cool. With more R&D / funding and brilliant minds this technology might transform the world we live in.

No pun intended.

Says the page is gone.

For sure. It's the wave of the future.

If Aliens Attack: Visitors to Earth Will Likely Be Robots
by Adam Hadhazy, SPACE.com Staff Writer
Date: 10 March 2011 Time: 11:13 AM ET

The alien invaders in the new movie "Battle: Los Angeles" are anything but friendly looking. Mechanical components are built right into their stringy bodies, a weapon protrudes from an arm, and machinery bristles along their armored exoskeletons. But like us, the aliens possess slimy internal organs and they can bleed.

This portrayal of extraterrestrials, however, strikes some scientists as unrealistic. Should any real visitors — or conquerors — from space come to our planet, the scientific odds strongly suggest the aliens will be completely artificial forms of life.

"If an extraterrestrial spaceship ever lands on Earth, I bet you that it is 99.9999999 percent likely that what exits that ship will be synthetic in nature," said Michael Dyer, a professor of computer science at the University of California, Los Angeles (appropriately enough).

In civilizations advanced enough to travel between the stars, it is quite likely that machines have supplanted their biological creators, some scientists argue. Automatons — unlike animals — could withstand the hazards to living tissue and the strain on social fabrics posed by a long interstellar voyage.

Furthermore, nonliving beings would not have to worry all that much about the environmental conditions at their destination — if the planet is hot or cold, bacteria-ridden or sterile, has oxygen in the air or is airless, machines would not care.

In short, don't expect cuddly, squishy E.T.s to come calling someday; instead, picture robots descending from the....

This is off topic Phoenix, but can you tell me how to add photos to threads without links? thanks

*turns around and looks down at ass*



Okay, now I dont feel so bad about my tush...

How many big macs does it take to make an a@# that big?

Actually, it's selective breeding...Africans would only jump out from behind a bush and rape the African women that had the big asses, because they instinctively knew they were most likely to survive famine...due to fat storage...

i think we are the Real Cylons.

Will it make me so I can reach my schlong like when I was younger and more limber? I ain't had a good knob job since then...like 15 years.
