Kokoro has showcased their Human-Type Head Basic assembly kit at the International Robot Exhibition 2009. The Kokoro Robot assembly kit is meant for education purpose, allows students to assemble their own robots, up to a complete robo girl.
With the Kokoro’s Robot assembly kit, students will be able to learn a combination of simple mechanisms to produce complicated expressions. The students will also be able to learn how to use and get some mechanical parts linking to each other. Such as linking the cylinders required for the jaw movements of the robot. And incorporating an camera-equipped Eye movement unit that allows the robot to have image recognition capabilities.
If you’re good, you should be able to get a cute robo girl up and running, to serve you well for the rest of your life.
