YouTube Preview Image

 

Just in time for Fashion Week In Tokyo, Japan’s National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology has unveiled the HRP-4C fashion model robot. As you can see in this video, the robot has a series of motors situated throughout its 5-foot tall, 95-pound body that give it a rather life-like appearance.

 We’ve seen walking robots that look like Transformers wannabes, and we’ve seen android models that essentially function like animatronic toys, but the look of HRP-4C truly begins to take us into Ghost In The Shell territory. The HRP-4C is scheduled to command the catwalk next week during Tokyo’s five-day fashion extravaganza.
