FT is the result of Tomotaka Takahashis desire to create a female type robot. I took over a year of development by Takahashi, who believes that half of all robots will be female in the near future.

FTs parts were designed specially to express a lean, feminine body line. Twenty-three motors, controlled by an onboard computer allow FT to move gracefully; SHIN-Walk enable her to walk like a woman.

In addition, Takahashi consulted with professional fashion models to make FTs movements even more lifelike.
