Canadian Man Builds Robotic Girlfriend

Robotic Girlfriend

Canadian software engineer Le Trung joins several other geeks we have seen over the years in building himself a robotic girlfriend. While she doesn't walk, she also doesn't need rest, Le Trung points out. And just to creep you out even more, the interview ends with:

"Aiko is still a virgin, AND NO I do not sleep with her," he writes on the Project Aiko Web site, though he admits that she "has sensors in her body including her private parts, and yes even down there."

Hey, it's cold in Canada - you need something to distract you when you're holed up inside.
