In addition，it has been programmed to give out two kinds of pleasant smells to match its emotions.The 1.5m tall robot was produced by researchers at the Korea Institute of Science and Techn ology (KIST) and is the first South Korean­developed machine of its kind.
“‘Mahru’ will o pen the way for the commercial use of humanoid robots doing housework，”You Bum­Jae，leader of the development research team，said，“‘Mahru’ can dance while walking on its legs and is able to work in place of a human.”
Through an advanced motion capture system，“Mahru” can follow a variety of human movements and move its hands freely enough to deal with any obstacles that may get in its way when walking.
State­funded KIS T showed the robot during a presentation at its head office in Seoul.
People here were treated to an entertaining demonstration which saw the robot show off the full range of its skills，most notably a series of dance moves.
The research team added that they ha d designed another “Mahru”，this time with sensors(传感器)allowing it to distinguish between faces and objects.
The showing of“Mahru” came a week after researchers in Japan said they had created the“most human­like” robot in the world.A team at robotics depart ment of Osaka University in Japan claimed that“robotgirl”，Repliee R­I，“looks，moves and interacts(相互作用)like a human，and has silicone(硅胶)skin that feels almost human to the touch.”

Ramanujan's great mathematical findings were beginning to be appreciated from 1915 to 1919.But his achievements were to be fully understood much later，well after his death in 1920.For example，his work on highly composite numbers(高合成数)with a large number of factors started a whole new line of researches in the theory of such numbers.
