重磅黑科技:能换脸的性爱机器人

2018-01-17来源:和谐英语

Though still nascent in terms of sheer numbers, sex robots have increased in popularity in recent years, with Abyss Creations’ ‘Harmony’ RealDoll arguably the most famous one. Creator Matt McMullen has taken Harmony one step further, giving the robot another face, dubbed Solana.

尽管性爱机器人仍然数量稀少,近年来却越来越受到欢迎,其中厄比斯创意公司RealDoll工作室的产品Harmnoy可说最为有名。公司创始人马特·麦克马伦进一步升级了Harmony机器人,为其配备了另一张面孔,命名为索拉娜。

Unveiled at Engadget’s After Hours show at CES, McMullen showed off the new face, saying that it is designed for versatility.

在国际消费类电子产品展览会现场,麦克马伦在瘾科技网站的After Hours秀展台上展示了这种新面孔,表示这种设计可以满足多样化需求。

McMullen noted that the face is modular, meaning it can be swapped out, just like a user can change settings on an app. He also said a user can change the personality settings and create a separate profile and avatar, without having to buy an entirely new robot.

麦克马伦指出,模块化的设计形式意味着它是可替换的,如同用户更改应用设置一样。他还说用户可以更改机器人的人格设定,创建新资料和新身份,无需购买新机器人。

In order to swap faces, a person has to actually peel the skin off the robotic head, which reveals the outer layer of the robot, with its enormous bulging eyes, mouth and an exposed cranium. A new wig can also be added to the RealHarmony doll.

为了换脸,用户必须把机器人的脸部皮肤剥下来,机器人脸部的外部结构完全可见,凸出的眼球、嘴和头盖骨一览无余。机器人的假发也可进行替换。

Once the face is changed, users can go on the app and switch the personality of the doll, bringing Solana to life.

一旦换脸完成后,用户可以打开应用,切换机器人的人格,索拉娜则正式上线了。

While McMullen only showed off Solana as a head-and-neck on stage, he added that he was working on developing heated bodies that could allow them to respond to touch or potentially move.

麦克马伦在展台上只是展示了索拉娜的头颈部,他补充说自己正在研究开发感热躯体,对抚摸或移动做出反应。

McMullen said he was "pretty gung-ho" about getting that movement from the neck down to work, adding he had already built a torso that can move and gyrate. The arms are currently being worked on, McMullen added.

麦克马伦表示,自己“非常努力”认真研究躯干开发,并已制作出一套可供移动及旋转的躯干。而据麦克马伦透露,机器人的手臂正在进行开发。

McMullen noted he has parts for approximately 20 robots and added that by the time they are ready to ship, there may also be a male version.

麦克马伦指出,自己已经制造出约20个机器人的部分躯体,待这些机器人发货时,或许男性性爱机器人也会诞生。
