Married Via Robot

[Demon_Skeith]

The Japanese love their robots. They've been making them for ages, from toys on up to complicated machines that can speak, manipulate objects, and even serve as masturbatory fantasies for a whole new generation of creepy Japanese fanboys.

Yesterday a robot, specifically Kokoro's four foot tall I-Fairy, presided over the wedding of a Japanese couple in what was the first robot-conducted wedding in human history. The I-Fairy was controlled by a man behind the curtain as she guided 36-year-old Kokoru employee Satoko Inoue and 42-year-old robotics professor Tomohiro Shibata into their new life, using speech synthesis to speak the pre-programmed words that bound the two together.

Here's an adorable clip of the ceremony.

Well, at least they weren't getting married to them..

The bride should sue her stylist..

This is pretty cool. But, I prefer a Gundam robot if I ever get married in Japan to a woman who will be willing to do this kind of ceremony.

I can't see many people doing this in North America or Eurupe except for Germany since the Germans are very industrial and tech. advance.
