This thing is the definition of Uncanny Valley. It's the hands I think. Vechs ( talk) 12:41, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
It would be nice to have some illustrations for the article. If anyone gets the opportunity to take some pictures, they would enhance the page. (Own-work photos avoid the question of copyright, of course.) Alas, I don't expect to have the chance anytime soon. Wyvern ( talk) 09:05, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
I'm going to leave his note here, the software is called "Megpoid" and the mascot/persona/avatar/character is called "Gumi". People, Vocaloid fans included, often write the name as "Megpoid Gumi" or "also known as Gumi", but this isn't right in either case. Fellow packages "Gackpoid" and "Gachapoid" share the same naming scheme with their mascots being "Camui Gackpo" and "Ryuto". 86.130.9.135 ( talk) 08:40, 24 January 2015 (UTC)

A cursory look at videos of hrp4c show plastic coverings of all its limbs, apart from the joints which are fabric covered. In at least one shot what looks like the pointed side of a human elbow can be seen, though fabric covered. There is no visible sign of machinery. The appearance of hrp4c is exactly what a robot costume worn by a human would look like, ie no mechanical linkages on moving parts and plastic covers on the rest. There is a degree of wavering of motion when hrp4c is supposed to be still, again redolant of a human trying to be still but subject to the constant corrections of balance that a human performs. A discussion of the evidence that hrp4c is not a hoax may be prudent. 31.94.62.185 ( talk) 11:57, 2 July 2023 (UTC) Edit: also, the AIST website appears to show that currently their bipedal robot tech is not as advanced as hrp-4c, yet hrp-4c dates back several years. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.94.72.148 ( talk) 03:00, 9 July 2023 (UTC)
