I understand the need to wrap the mechanism to help keep it clean, but why no zippers or Velcro or something? From the perspective of a technician, cover panels should be easily removable for access, especially on a prototype. Cutting off the covering onstage seems... dramatic.
Also, um... why does it have boobs?
Are you gonna buy a household robot that you CAN'T fuck?!
Actually my robot vacuum is way better at sucking!
You know we HAD been considering getting one...
Well this isn't a prototype, it's a tech demo.
Not only does it have a full outer covering, it also has a thick underweave layer that makes it more fleshy. It has a surprising amount of corners and pinchy bits underneath - honestly sealing it completely is probably also to protect nearby humans
As for the boobs... Well, I kinda figured humanity would wait until we had a generation of useful robots before giving them boobs, but we were always going to end up here...
You know why. Because it makes it look more appealing.
because we can! The real question is: Why only ONE pair !!! I mean, it could be a huge boob that walked around on smaller boobs ! ..or boob hands with long sausage boobs (grandpa tits?) as fingers. Someone fucked up here !
