Fem-bot's my love machine

This scientist may be on to something, building the perfect woman, he is also capable of building for women a male robot that can reach the top shelf and open jars. WM Inventor Le Trung, 33, created Aiko, said to be “in her 20s” with a stunning 32, 23, 33 figure, shiny hair and delicate features. She even remembers his favourite drink and does simple cleaning and household tasks. "Fem-bot" Aiko, who has cost £14,000 to build so far, is a whizz at maths and even does Le’s accounts. Le, a scientific genius from Brampton in Ontario, Canada, said he never had time to find a real partner so he designed one using the latest technology. He said he did not build Aiko as a sexual partner, but said she could be tweaked to become one. “Her software could be redesigned to simulate her having an orgasm and reacting to touch as if she is playing hard to get or being straight to the point,” he said. The former software programmer has taken out credit cards and loans, sold his car and spent his life savings on perfecting the machine. “I want to make her look, feel and act as human as possible so she can be the perfect companion,” said Le. The odd looking pair go out for drives together in the Canadian countryside, before sitting down at the dinner table, but Aiko never eats anything. The fem-bot has a touch-sensitive face and body so she reacts if shown affection or hurt. “Like a real female she will react to being touched in certain ways. If you grab or squeeze too hard she will try to slap you. She has all senses except for smell,” he said. Le, a child genius who was put in a class for talented youngsters, made his first robot when he was just eight years old. “I may need to have Aiko look after me one day. “She doesn’t need holidays, food or rest and she will work almost 24-hours a day. She is the perfect woman,” he said. Click title for full article
