A SEX robot firm is making a doll with a fully functional Terminator-like head which can speak, smile and even sing in a major breakthrough for the cyborg industry.
Doll makers have created a prototype of DS Doll Robotic Head coated in silicone skin which can be controlled by a smartphone or PlayStation controller.
The model, made by Doll Sweet Dolls and EX Doll, has a stunningly beautiful face, and can listen and answer questions using voice recognition software.
But the head will only be able to speak in Chinese, although there are plans to launch a campaign to raise enough money to produce an English version.
The futuristic doll, which hits the shelves at the end of 2018, does not have a rotatable neck, but will fit all the company's other doll bodies, which have flexible limbs allowing them to move as a real person.

Can you tell the difference between these dolls and real girls?

Paul Lumb, head of Cloud Climax, says the prototype is the Bugatti Veyron of VR - and his company hopes to bring the doll to the UK by the end of the year.
He said: "EX Dolls have been working on a robotics head since 2014, but we're generations away from a Terminator-style cyborg.
"What they've been doing is developing app control for the robot head, but currently with the prototype it's only got Chinese dialect, which is their core market.
"Over the next 12 months, they want to develop Japanese and English speaking models.

"They will have an element of natural conversation, so they won't sound too robotic, but they will take time - languages are massive.
"The voice recognition is no different to a smart phone, but this model also has facial expressions, unlike standard silicone heads.
"Over the last two years we've been moving towards real touch, real feel silicon dolls, enhancing the skeleton to make it lighter - these adult-sized dolls have a combined head and body weight of five stone.
"It's an opportunity to take this to the next level of where doll development is going, and it's been happening quietly behind the scenes for ten to 15 years.

It is really the Bugatti Veyron of VR
This is revolutionary, it's a game-changer - from a gamer's perspective, it'd be like a new console being released.
"This is the next step of teledildonics reality, it's at the forefront of adult tech and is really the Bugatti Veyron of VR."
Paul said the prototype represents the very latest in natural realism, but it comes at a hefty price with the dolls set to go on sale at around 4,500.
He added: "Two studio level make up artists have taken this head to the next level, it looks very natural in the face.

"The realism of a robotic head and body together will be the next level of enhancement - the guys who work for EX Dolls have masters in robotics and are continually evolving this technology.
"From a software point of view, you don't want it breaking, and they need to get the internal components correct.
"They're also working on facial posturing, narration and interaction.
"We're still six or seven years away from having the ability to incorporate sensor pads and electronic wiring - it'll probably be a decade before prototypes are even made.
"You just don't want a heavy doll filled with technology, it can't really be an actual sex robot - it'd be too expensive.
"The skeleton can be posed and moved, and the head can be interacted with, but there's not full body movement and it's just an enhancement to what we're currently selling.
"This is the ultimate, really - I'd be very surprised if we see a fully autonomous body soon, it's too future tech and that'll be 15 to 20 years down the line."
