HRP-4C Cybernetic Human
This post was published 2 years 4 months 20 days ago which may make its actuality or expire date not be valid anymore. This site is not responsible for any misunderstanding.It has been almost 2 years when the humanoid HRP-4C passed her first catwalk casting test at Japan’s Fashion Week and our cute humanoid model has gone a long way since.
Robotics researchers in Japan have upgraded her to a new humanoid model that can belt out a tune with both natural-sounding vocals and the facial expressions to make it seem much more realistic.
The robot learns by mimicking a real human singer. The HRP-4C bot listens to the tune and watches the singer’s lips as she performs. Then the humanoid re-creates its own rendition, using software named VocalListener to synthesize its own vocal sound.
Just check out the HRP-4C funny dance video. Extremely spectacular..
