I don't know why anyone would want to buy a fully robotic, life-size bust of a chimpanzee that looks and behave like the real animal. It can see, hear, feel and interact intelligently with people. It has soulful eyes that can track movements using infrared vision. It has ears that have stereoscopic sound sensors and skin that reacts to contact with touch sensors all around. It even has four emotional moods. Scary!
