Large companies is Japan have their own pet projects on humanoid, or animal robots. Here is the one by Toshiba.
Customers visiting an uptown department store in Tokyo, Japan, from 20 April onwards will be greeted by a humanoid robot receptionist who looks just like a real woman when they enter the store. ChihiraAico, a lifelike android robot built by electronics manufacturer Toshiba, is able to talk, sing, gesture and cry like a 32-year-old Japanese woman.
