Showa Hanako 2
The girl pictured above is actually a robot named Showa Hanako 2. She was originally developed as a tool for dentists looking to practice new procedures, but is now able to recognise voice commands, turn her head and open her mouth real wide! She can also execute freakishly natural movements, including blinking, sneezing, coughing and, under more unsavory circumstances, even choking!
But before your mind ends up in the gutter, see the video as to why she’s designed like that.
