ROBOT OF THE WEEK: BARE-FACED CHEEK

by Hazed

Introducing the robo-butt.

Japanese scientists have come up with a robotic ass that looks realistic, and twitches and responds to touch in the same way a real bottom does.

The Shiri - which is Japanese for buttocks - “represents emotions with visual and tactual transformation of the muscles,” apparently.

Why have they done this? I have no idea, unless they wanted to give journalists everywhere the excuse for a load of ass-related puns.

Watch a video of the tush-bot here. It gives a whole new meaning to the uncanny valley.
