“A robot with a shape similar to that of a human can operate in an environment designed for human use, use the same tools without the need to modify them and even work in collaboration with human workers” explains Fumio Kanehiro from AIST (Advanced Industrial Science and Technology of Tokyo).
The Actroid-DER robot, developed to provide public reception functions, was presented at the Aichi Expo in 2005. It is operational in Japanese, Chinese, Korean, and English.

Replace the man when he is away. Ultimately, we could use a humanoid robot for home telephony applications. New jobs: programmers, engineers, repairers, … We work on the devices that work.
advantage 3
Interact with humans. Kobian, a “humanoid” robot, capable of expressing seven human emotions, surprise, rapture, sadness, and disgust. In addition to being able to take different poses to express his emotions, Kobian uses the motors installed in his face to move his lips, eyes, and eyebrows. For example, to express delight, he raises his arms above his head and opens his mouth and eyes wide. He can also walk around and exercise.
A robot with software that can detect a person’s feelings by the tone of their voice and interact accordingly could be of great help to the elderly. For example, he would take care of the health of the elderly, their dietary needs, and remind them when to take their medication.

Simplify human life. Man has used the animal for 10 millennia, then built machines to replace his arm, or to be more precise, to increase the productivity of social work. If robots are capable of doing tiresome tasks for humans, their lives should be simplified. The development of productivity implies that the quantity of social work (the total number of hours worked) must decrease, but in no way that unemployment increases. When productivity doubles, you can put half the people out of work. We could also double hourly wages and halve working time. So there will be less work and the hourly wages will increase. Robotization aims to improve cadences,

Replace the man for the difficult task. The robot is comparable to a worker, if there are more robots there will be less worker who kill themselves in the spot. He does not complain, does not tire, he is a kind of slave. Robotization has brought greater precision to humans, particularly in the medical field. robotization has replaced humans in hostile environments. For example to explore the seabed or in space, also defuse bombs or radioactive objects. The use and maintenance of robots is often more economical for industrialists than the employment of workers.
