PLAMODEL RADICON SHOW 2005

SHOW INFO




Tomotaka Takahashi, a robot creator, has designed
the never-before-seen 1/5th scale robot.
He has injected MANOI with warmth and now
it is more appropriately called a humanoid
rather than a robot. Furthermore, the costume never
affects the motion of joints and MANOI's various
poses and actions highlight its individuality.
