Is that a dude?



Discovery News - A life-sized robot is now on the market for $7,000 from the firm TrueCompanion. Inventor Douglas Hines introduced Roxxxy last month at the AVN Adult Entertainment Expo in Las Vegas. Hines, who used to work as an artificial intelligence engineer at Bell Labs before starting his company, embedded the robot with a slew of advanced technologies such as voice-recognition and speech-synthesis software to give it a lifelike presence.

For example, when someone addresses Roxxxy, a computer uses pattern-recognition software to match the phrase to a database of responses. She then answers using a prerecorded voice.

Some other tantalizing attributes, if you're into that kind of thing:

A wireless connection to the Internet for software updates, technical support and email messages.
A customizable personality
Skin made from hypoallergenic silicone
A motor pumps heated air through the robot's body, keeping it warm to the touch.
Sensors in several places (ahem) that will trigger vocal responses when activated







Ok so I know that people are into some freaky shit when it comes to their sex lives, and who am I to judge? I don't care to get into people's personal lives and whatever it is they do behind closed doors but this one, this is too much. I hate to drop the f bomb on here but this is straight up F@*#ing weird. Seriously how lonely and how big of a loser do you have to be to drop $7,000 on one of these things. If your that damn lonely, take that money and get an escort or something like that. I don’t know the going rate but I’m willing to bet you can get laid quite a few times for 7 grand. And, at least its a real person! This is the creepiest thing I have ever seen and they couldn’t make it any better looking? It looks like a god damn man! Unless your David Patterson, I don't know how you could stand banging that transvestite looking robot. The voice sounds creepy, and I don’t care how many conversations it can carry on, its still a robot and weird as shit. Like I said, who am I to judge, but if you are at the point in your life that you need to purchase a robot that looks like a dude to have sex with, its a sign you went wrong somewhere in life. Furthering my point, the picture below of the creep show who invented this thing, Douglas Hines. Look at him, you can't tell me that guy at some point in his life hasn’t had thoughts of touching little kids.
