train times wanted to marry much of life. travel to the specialist to germany. where exactly. the last car culture history of. detail travel extremely worth a visit. japan is a pioneer in robotic research there i got to know one of the world's top roboticists and his mind blowing creations i want to operate today on shift. professor he rushes you guru is a real rock star in the robotic seat he specializes in human robot into action and

androids robards that look like humans i met him is in kioto. hi everybody my name is you know as usual i think creatures you know and fishing and when you don't have them are all what. we need more robots why exactly in japan people are more comfortable with robots than elsewhere that may have to do with the influence of shintoism which states that all things have a spirit even robots could have a soul that might be why they're more willing to use robots to solve social problems japan has a super aging society the average age is 48.4 years the result is a lack of manpower for everything from factory workers to caregivers for the elderly so since 2015 the japanese government has turned to robots for help it's new robot strategy program actively supports such technologies but no one has gone

as far as he wrote she she guru he's even created his own robotics when called gemini. gemini it doesn't act autonomy as leader instead it's remote controlled in real time by an operator. and what is it like to sit in that room all day. so how noisy i'm very i'm very sad and how does he keep his twin looking like you belong to him what he did in there all was and this is you know and i also doubt that even in my face or so the question though which is the cheaper you know right roxanne surgeries or you know the new president of the us or in you know usually in on the right process surgery the multitude of. this tell annoyed is also remote controlled its software transmits facial expressions and speech simultaneously but my question about a boss puts the technician behind tell him not on the spot i have one question what

kind of man is your invent it. you. know about your inventive and what kind of other guy next to me right now. so those was hard when you were to talk about him how did. he say to me well yeah. ok. so that's very she was. ok i will try to argue. with you you go i feel hard. feel. and yeah they say you're creepy but holding you in my hands i have to say it feels natural it's because i'm i'm really here i'm with you very surprised by by. talking to you 2000. was very interesting. ok i admit the das look

a bit creepy but what made me uncomfortable was holding on to such an expensive high tech device. what really surprised me was how it's neutral appearance affected the impression i had made the tel annoyed office a blank surface to project your own imagination onto and since the technician had a pleasant voice the 10 annoyed made an altogether good impression he rushes uro's creations sometimes resembled works of art they pose an existential questions like what does it mean to be human that's something as you grow also explores in his work. i am interested in the human side you know my much visions 10 days on what you might be there for you know i i so there's so many things i'm studying about the humans by using and. born in she got in 963 hiroshi she grew out of the oil painting as he was he dreamed of being an artist but wound up studying computer science instead he became an engineer and developed the keen interest in ai and

robotics. when i have created a parser although i was thinking about you know what these i call wants for in talking with people. she drew has been working on creating robots that resemble humans for decades. she's also developed female and child androids based one was fashioned out of his daughter who was 4 at the time. gemini it has robotics when it was a prototype for a new generation of humanoid robots the remote controlled android has already stored in 4 she grew up during speeches and university lectures she grew hopes his robot clone will help him find out more about watch human presence really means and he wants to get to know himself better to. do the. most important things for me was in the way i have created in my copy then i don't understand. i cannot have the objective views about them i said i don't know that

my pace and my behavior than my voice right through the entire town so i can understand myself kind of in on the finding was a very important for me robotics when to help you understand yourself better mazing but to many if you girls and was just plain creepy there's even a technical term for the eerie feeling humanoid robots provoke uncanny valley is clearly visible in this graphic the uncanny valley theory states that when a robot looks too human people are repulsed but to ensure a positive interaction we. you must feel comfortable with humanoid robots professor as you grow believes the uncanny valley will soon be a thing of the past thanks to this android. meet erica she's capable of understanding language in this case japanese she can talk and consume a number of human like facial expressions erica can usually be found sitting in the lobby of the research institute new kioto for visitors she's an attraction for the

stuff she's completely normal. on the road is not on getting any more right so the people are getting a very natural using of this here on the road and it is you know quite unnatural and in a scene where they might count us all as in the my student is moving in the on the writing on campus and you can then robot is a moving around the campus but no one knows what they pay attention to that all about. but making robots that can communicate like people that understand the topics and contexts necessary to make a conversation seem natural is still a big challenge for ai in many ways eric guys at the forefront of robotic research . want a conversation partner concept is that she's connected to a computer system that's constantly scanning him. doing that but when you're in this window you can see where all the people are one person is here. erica is here

so erica can recognize what a text that there's a person on her right side then through this camera here she picks up the direction of the person's face their facial expression and associate who this person is. going to be just on the shore and then you're going to go and see the cure or call it. cannot be the right kind of sort of. the software also analyzes a conversation partners voice so erica can engage in dialogue with him. you know. in order to design a broker that talks to ordinary people properly human input is necessary. but the android independently determine is the topic selection and strategy. eric is and thomas the operating robot but part of the process is pre-determined by humans.

erica really impressed me for decades japan has been a leader in the development of production of robots over half of the world's robots made here many for industrial use but robots also play a big role in japanese pop culture in tokyo this full size gand the robot turns many hats machines have even made their way into the music world how does a symphony sound when is conducted by a robot. he rushes she grows and also 3 has been touring the world as an orchestra conductor since 2018 the music was written by japanese composer. equipped with state of the art artificial intelligence auto 3 has something like its own new role network that makes the robot move on to its lead as it interprets the score. the premise is that the android itself is moving according to its own will. you

know however as a separate program the structural elements of this core created by mr shibuya are interjected into the independent and autonomy its actions. because that is. the music is preprogramed but also 3 interprets it differently each time those that make it creative thanks to ai is conducting skills a medal of chance and he is another question can robots convey spirituality in germany we had a blessing robot cause bless you too well. meanwhile hiroshi's euro has created his version of a buddhist priest and in terms of technology alone is of an entirely different caliber. an android that ponders what it means to be human desire anger selfishness around the mind has been explaining the basics of the buddhist faith. as part of a multimedia performance. such

a height that would. not took the york a lot not all of the good of the big some people find it odd when they arrive. but 25 minutes later after experiencing the ceremony they're quite accepting of mind. he rushes she grew developed mind the incorporation with a team from osaka university they spent some 900000 euros creating it. had face and hands made from silicone and modeled off the human anatomy the rest was deliberately left to look like a machine. or even already in the in a buddhism it was just a message from the god then you know that someone made these they choose so now we have a robot that you know why we don't use the bible to think what you did before making that. kind of botch over i think. it's chiodos could dodgy

temple they hold that in mind that will spark fresh interest in buddhism. and the future mind could be more than just a high tech attraction they're thinking of feeding the robot with buddhist teachings and knowledge and equipping it with ai software then mind it could answer questions on his own like an interactive buddhist we could pedia robots can be priests addis and even can give us in japan the prospect of machines taking over important jobs in society is not a frightening one but your view should robots play a bigger role in our lives or does the idea scare you tell us on facebook dot com and to learn more about japanese robot developers check out our you tube channel that's it for me for now see you next time.
