A unique humanoid robot was presented by the Perm region
The Perm region stand presented the first Russian humanoid robot, Ardi, during the International RUSSIA EXPO.
"What we have seen in sci-fi movies not so long ago is now here - at the stand of the Kama region. Ardi has 600 facial micro-expressions, he can sing with emotion, knows a lot of poems by Perm authors and reads them with great pleasure. Both children and adults get a lot of emotions and impressions while visiting the Perm region, and the robot is also ready to take selfies with the guests of the stand", - Alexey Chernikov, Deputy Chairman of the Government of the Perm region, told about the development of Perm roboticists.
Ardi is a product of Double U Expo company and their partners based on the Robo-C humanoid robot. The development lasted about a year and is based on unique software with Motion Capture technology, which allows hyper-realistic reproduction of human facial expressions, emotions and gestures. A separate team of directors and screenwriters worked on the robot's scripts. Perm Ardi is the world's first mass-produced robot with such functionality, and the developers are ready to put its production on stream.
