Mahru, is one such Robot that was developed by a research team at the state funded Korea Institute of Science and Technology. He can move his lips, his eyebrows and even his pupils to make faces. He can move his upper body while walking on his legs and what’s more, he can also emit two different fragrances to match his emotions!

This kind of advancement in Robot technology is an attempt to make a humanoid robot capable of doing work instead of a human being.
