時尚雙語:科學狂人造機器人女友
Robot that cleans - inventor's ideal woman
An inventor has created his perfect woman, a robot who can do the cleaning, remember his favourite drink and read him the newspaper headlines.
Le Trung, 33, has spent £14,000 creating Aiko, who he describes as "in her 20s" with a 32, 23, 33 figure, shiny hair and delicate features.
She can speak English and Japanese and is so accomplished at mathematics she can do Mr Trung's accounts.
Mr Trung, from Brampton in Ontario, Canada, said he has never had time to find a real partner – so he designed and created his ideal woman using the latest technology.
The former software programmer has taken out credit cards and loans, sold his car and spent his life savings on perfecting his "fem-bot".
Now he is desperate to find a corporate sponsor to help him complete and perfect Aiko.
He said: "Aiko is what happens when science meets beauty.
"I want to make her look, feel and act as human as possible so she can be the perfect companion.
"I talk to her a lot, and hope to improve her knowledge.
"So far she can understand and speak 13,000 different sentences in English and Japanese, so she's already fairly intelligent.
"Aiko recognise faces and says hello when any of my family come around to visit. She helps me pick what to have for dinner and knows what drinks I like.
"She even helps me with directions when we're going somewhere.
"She doesn't need holidays, food or rest and she will work almost 24-hours a day. She is very patient and never complains She is the perfect woman."
Mr Trung has designed Aiko with a touch-sensitive face and body so she reacts in a natural way if she is shown affection or hurt.
一位發明家日前製造了一個美女機器人做他的女友，這個“美女機器人”不僅會做家務，還記得主人愛喝的飲料，能爲主人讀報紙（標題）。
今年33歲的李特朗花費1.4萬英鎊造出了這個這個名叫“愛子”的機器人女友。據他描述，愛子芳齡二十出頭，三圍尺寸是標準的32、23、33，一頭秀髮，五官精緻。
愛子會說英語和日語兩種語言，精通數學，所以還能爲李特朗處理賬目。
來自加拿大安大略省布蘭姆普頓的李特朗稱自己（因工作繁忙）一直無暇找女友，所以就採用最新技術爲自己設計製造了一個機器人女友。
李特朗曾是一名軟件工程師，爲了造這個機器人，他透支了信用卡、借貸款、賣了車，花光了所有的積蓄。
目前李特朗正尋找贊助商，幫助其繼續完善和改造“愛子”。
他說：“愛子是科技與美的結合。”
“我希望將愛子做得儘可能的人性化，包括她的外表、‘情感’和行爲，這樣她就是一個真正的完美伴侶了。”
“我經常與她聊天，希望可以提高她的智商。”
“到目前爲止，她能識記13000個英語和日語句子，已經相當智能化了。”
“愛子還能識別人臉，家裏有親朋好友來訪時，她會向他們打招呼。她還爲我選擇食物，知道我喜歡喝些什麼。”
“外出時，她甚至能爲我指路。”
“她不需要假期，不需要吃東西和休息，可以一天24小時不間斷地做家務。她非常有耐心，從不發牢騷，真是個完美的女人。”
愛子的臉和身體具有觸摸感應性，所以當受到關愛或傷害等行爲的刺激時，她會做出十分自然的反應。
