Albert Hubo Unveiling Event
Albert Hubo talking to singer Jang Yoon Jung during an Albert Hubo unveiling event in Seoul, South Korea on Dec 12, 2005. In November 2005, KAIST, Korea and Dallas, Texas based Hanson Robotics, Inc (HRI) released the world's first android head mounted on a life-size walking bi-pedal frame at the APEC Summit in Seoul, Korea. The walking frame was based on the KHR-3 HUBO, while the head was an exact recreation of the late physicist, Albert Einstein. The android was able to speak and cover a wide range of natural facial expressions, built upon prior HRI development on the Philip K. Dick android, which made its official debut at the Wired Magazine NextFest 05' in Chicago, Illinois. The humanoid prototype was officially dubbed "Albert Einstein Hubo".
