Robot models wedding dresses

In the last episode, we brought you news of Tiro the robot's employment, now we have another robot story for you. HRP-4C is a robot who models wedding dresses on a catwalk. Kazuhito Yokoi created the HRP-4C (crap name) with the intention of using it "for fashion and entertainment." While it resembles a human woman, it also looks a bit creepy. Kazuhito spoke of his intense bond with his mechanical creation and the mixed feelings of her public appearance: ''I feel happy, and at the same time lonely, just like a bride's father.''
