Aiko
The minds of the general public have long been puzzled by the probability of robots being mixed with the human population. These thoughts were made closer to reality on August 15, 2007 when Le Trung started working on a Yumecom (translated literally in English as a dream computer robot). The Yumecom was dubbed as a fembot (female robot), because of its female-like attributes. The fembot was named Aiko.
Aiko was originally intended to be a service robot, or one that would help the aging population perform easy activities of daily living. Simple tasks, such as making a cup of coffee or a cup of tea, were in its original program. Several other tasks, such as telling the weather, reading printed materials aloud, and reminding the elderly to take their medications were also included in its capabilities. Likewise, there are a bunch of other tasks that this female robot can perform in homes, offices, and even in public places.
With its complex programming, Aiko was made to be the first android that can react to physical stimuli. It can mimic pain that humans are experiencing. With this capability, this female android was seen as the first step towards helping people who have undergone amputations. This android can be used to the development of life-like mechanical limbs, which can feel physical sensations.
