Actor robots take Japanese stage
First there were dancing robots, then house-sitting robots and now a new breed of acting robots is making its big debut on the Japanese stage.

The play, which had its premiere at Osaka University, is one of Japan's first robot-human theatre productions.

The machines were specially programmed to speak lines with human actors and move around the stage with them.

Playwright Oriza Hirata says the work raises questions about the relationship between humanity and technology.

The play, called Hataraku Watashi (I, Worker), is set in the near future.

It focuses on a young couple who own two housekeeping robots, one of which loses its motivation to work.

In the play, the robot complains that it has been forced into boring and demeaning jobs and enters into a discussion with the humans about its role in their lives.

So far, the play is only 20 minutes long but it is hoped to become a full-length production by 2010.

The Wakamaru robot is manufactured by Mitsubushi but the software to train it for the stage was developed over two months at the university.

The 1-m (3-ft) tall humanoid robot is best known as a mechanical house-sitter and secretary.

But soon they may be signing autographs or trying to roll away from paparazzi.

No word yet on whether they are pleased with the apparent job promotion.

目前在大阪大學的短劇「I, Worker」中軋了一角，這部 20 分鐘長的短劇是描述一對年輕男女和他們 有點醜 迷人的家事機器人之間的故事，家事機器人對工作厭倦，對人類的奴役反感，對未來絕望。預計到 2010 年可以發展成完整的戲劇(癮科技)

版主:機器人目前仍然尚未導入主流.所以昂貴的機器人~是一般老百姓不會想花錢的玩意兒!!

這種機種都是嚇死人的貴.有多少企業可以買來用??不要說這機種啦~就連一些老闆想做一些便宜機種來讓大家都傭有實驗機種機器人.就都不一定是人人"想買".

"想買"是一各值得醒思的POINT.
