So far, I guess noone really cares much about whether a robot is a male or female. But Tomotaka Takahashi simply had a strong desire to create a female robot in his collection, which he believes that half of the robot population will be famale in the future. He spent about a year of development to produce a female robot, which is called FT. Takahashi had consulted couple of professional fashion models to make it feminine enough to be identified as a female robot. In order for every movement and expression of this female robot to be feminine enough, it contains 23 motors, controlled by an onboard computer, which allows her to walk like a woman.
