8. SOUNDBITE: (Japanese) Minoru Asada, Professor at Osaka University and Research Director of Japan Science Technology Organisation Asada Project:
"Our goal is to study human recognition development such as how the child learns language, how it recognises objects, how the child learns to communicate with its father and mother. For that purpose, we cannot use the adult robot as it has already developed functions. We instead developed this child robot with the functions yet undeveloped. We hope to come close to finding out human mystery and our development path by developing its functions from this underdeveloped stage."

STORYLINE:
Scientists in Japan have developed a robotic baby.
The Child-Robot with Biomimetic Body, or CB2 for short, was developed by a team of scientists at Osaka University and is designed to move just like a real child aged between one and three years old.
Although at 130 centimetres (51 inches) long and with a weight of 33 kilogrammes (5.1 stone), the robot is slightly bigger than a real baby.
The robot, which has a silicone skin, can change it's facial expressions and move it's body so it can crawl along the floor.
The robot's smooth and human like movements and reactions to the outer environment are realised with 56 actuators and 197 tactile sensors under its cover, many more than walking robots.
The robot also has a camera installed in its eyes as well as an audio sensor.
It can also speak using an artificial vocal cord.
It's these machinery elements which made the size of the robot so much bigger than that of a real baby, although when it stands the robot wobbles just like a child who is learning how to walk.
Minoru Asada, a Professor at Osaka University, said the purpose of the robot is to learn more about child development.
"Our goal is to study human recognition development such as how the child learns language, how it recognises objects, how the child learns to communicate with its father and mother," Asada said.
