Slides, Google Sheets, Google Photos,<br />

and Google Keep along with the<br />

next robot news<br />

anchor<br />

Erica, a lifelike android designed to look<br />

like a 23-year-old woman, may soon<br />

become a TV news anchor in Japan.<br />

of the Intelligent Robotics Laboratory<br />

at Osaka University and Erica's creator,<br />

capably recite scripted writing and sit in<br />

a chair, making her about as qualified<br />

technology and infrared<br />

sensors that allow her to track faces<br />
