Robot "Jiajia" unveiled on April 15, 2016
A new interactive robot, named Jia Jia, was unveiled by the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) in Hefei, capital of east China's Anhui province. "Jia Jia" looks very much like a real woman. Jia Jia was developed by a robot research and development team at the USTC, which also developed the model service robot "Kejia." It took the team three years to research and develop this new-generation interactive robot, which can speak, show micro-expressions, move its lips, and move its body. Compared to previous interactive robots, Jia Jia's eyeballs roll naturally and its speech is in sync with its lip movements, in addition to her human-like form. (Photo gallery)
