Le Trung, a Canadian scientist of Vietnamese descent, “with no time for romance,” decided to create the perfect robot woman for his taste.
He therefore created Aiko, a devoted and helpful girl who remembers her favorite drink.
According to British tabloids, Aiko, who has oriental features, is also kind to her mother-in-law, cleans the house and can give directions.
Le Trung spent the equivalent of 14,000 euros to create her, and now says he is delighted : the robot reads the newspaper while he eats breakfast, and rides around with him in his car.
Le Trung denies that he built her as a sex toy, but admits that she can be programmed to have an orgasm.
This is how the inventor justifies his creation :
“Aiko, which means ‘love child’ in Japanese, is what happens when science meets beauty.
She doesn’t need vacations, food or rest, she works almost 24 hours a day.
She is the perfect woman.
The only thing she can’t do is smell perfume.”
But Aiko is certainly not a carefree robot : if her partner approaches her too impetuously and touches her in the wrong places, she reacts with a slap.
Le Trung says that not everyone appreciates his work :
“Some people accuse me of playing God.
Once someone threw a stone at Aiko.
