Chinese robotics firm DS Doll has given customers a sneak peak of the next generation sex robot it wants to mass produce and market across the globe.

Filmed at the DS Doll workshop in Dalian, a city littered with top tech firms on China’s northeast coast, the fascinating footage gives a flavour of the advancements being made.

At the start of the video, a DS Doll engineer interacts with a talking robotic head hooked up to wires that blinks and moves its mouth while speaking in Mandarin.

Although eerily realistic, the head looks more machine than human as the scientist tests its capabilities at the DS Doll workshop in the south of Liaoning Province.

But later in the video, the sex robot really comes to life when the full life-size version with uncannily human-like characteristics is introduced.

Wearing a flowing bronze robe, the sex robot shimmies her shoulders, nods her head and pulls several facial expressions while speaking to camera.

Other androids being produced by competitors in the US and Europe are only robotic heads with limited movement fixed on to sex doll bodies.

DS Doll believes it can become the world’s first company to mass produce and sell autonomous sex robots with artificial intelligence and full body movement.

Sam, marketing manager for DS Doll, said the sex robot with shoulder and neck movement seen in the video will be included in the second generation design.

The second generation of DS Doll sex robots will probably have removable limbs and AI akin to Apple’s Siri and Google’s Alexa systems, said Sam, whose aiming to market DS products in Europe and Britain.

“We anticipate it to be a full doll with a range of movement, in at least the neck and shoulders, that will give more expression,” he told Daily Star Online.

“There is a possibility of removable limbs, similar to the EX-Lite doll mechanisms, this is being looked into at the moment.

“The prototype is currently a bust, but the body is also being worked on at the moment.

“The second generation will have AI similar to Siri or Alexa so as to converse with you, and give a more interactive experience that generation one.”

For now, a team of scientists is putting the finishing touches to the first generation of sex robots, which are expected to be released in the near future.

At present, the first generation will be robotic heads attached to sex doll bodies, costing between £2,895 and £3,195 for the premium range.

Controlled through an app, DS Doll’s first generation sex robots will not have AI capabilities, but will be able to “display an array of facial expressions at your will”.

Other features include playing music and voice recordings.

The second version, however, will be programmed to converse by drawing on stored data or searching the internet for the answers, similar to Apple’s Siri or Google’s Alexa.

Sam, whose marketing firm Cloud Climax has partnered with DS Doll, said £300 deposits are being accepted for the robotic head.

DS Doll’s main aim is to make “affordable” androids “readily available” to customers everywhere in the world, Sam said.

The most affordable sex doll that is compatible with the robotic head is the EX-Lite, which costs £539.99.

Weighing 8kg and made of polyurethane foam on a plastic anatomical skeleton, the EX-Lite has removable limbs for easily storage.

Sam said: “It is the world’s first polyurethane foam doll and was produced with the mindset of creating a long-lasting and more beautiful version of a quality vinyl doll.”

The forthcoming release of the sex robot head is just a flavor “great advancements that will follow in the coming months and years”, Sam added.
