Future Androids

The movie WALL-E made me think about the science of robotics and future androids. Perhaps in the days to come we will see more science breakthroughs in this area. It is not just neural networks and artificial intelligence, but also the ability to walk on two legs like the Honda robot asimo.

Right now Sega has a robot girlfriend called ema short for Eternal Maiden Actualization that sells for $175, and how much longer do we have to wait for a full size model, like in the anime Chobits?
