Video: German Fembot AILA

When we showed you AILA [GER] for the first time back in April , the only video material available of the robotic female from Germany wasn’t exactly of great quality. But now her maker, the Deutsches Forschungszentrum für Künstliche Intelligenz (DFKI/German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence), has shot and uploaded a new, better, and slightly longer (2.42 min.) video. To recap, AILA stands 170cm tall and boasts these features: 18 joints in the body, a stereo camera, a 3D camera, and three laser sensors. There are RFID antennas in her hands that help her identify, grab and move objects.
