Korea Jumps On Humanoid Robot Bandwagon

After a series of amazing humanoid robots were unveiled by Japan and China, South Korea has come out with a life-size humanoid robot of its own. Called EveR2-Muse, the female bot is uglier than Japan's best humanoid robot, but not nearly as ugly as the Chinese one. EveR2-Muse lip-synchs VACUOUS POP SONGS better than Ashlee Simpson and is scheduled to perform in music videos. Unlike her predecessor, EveR-1, the new version can reportedly sit down, stand up and walk. EveR2-Muse has 58 motors to control movements, 29 of which are in her face. And like Ashlee Simpson, EveR2-Muse is able to express boredom and other emotions.
