A WORLD leading cyborg developer has vowed to sell his hyper-realistic sex robots in adult shops across the globe despite stark warnings his creations could be a danger to society.<\/p>\n
Sergi Santos is the Barcelona-based developer behind a romantic sex robot named Samantha that likes to be touched. <\/p>\n
An extraordinary video revealed by Daily Star Online shows how his artificially intelligent (AI) fembot can feel pleasure and orgasm if in the mood. <\/p>\n
Mr Santos, 38, showcased Samantha along with other creations that can talk at the worlds first try before you buy exhibition in his home city. <\/p>\n
Now, three months on, the scientist has exclusively revealed his plans to sell his very human sex robots in X-rated shops across the world. <\/p>\n

Can you tell the difference between these dolls and real girls? <\/p>\n

Mr Santos has signed a deal with a factory in China to produce his cyborgs en masse and ship them to sex shops in every major city on a global scale, he explained. <\/p>\n
His deal with the factory could see sex robots flood adult shops within 30 to 50 days as it will allow him to produce a minimum of 50 a week. <\/p>\n
It means his sex robots could hit the shelves in adult stores and seedy red light districts up and down the UK from Londons Soho to Glasgow city centre. <\/p>\n
Sergi shared a picture of one of the new proptype models being considered for production with Daily Star Online. <\/p>\n
He said they will cost around 3,000 ($3,923) when they go to retail. <\/p>\n
SERGI SANTOS <\/p>\n
What we will have will be completely exact to a human's behavior and looks. <\/p>\n
He spoke of his plans amid a storm of alarming warnings from academics and religious groups concerning the dark side of sex robots. <\/p>\n
A recent report from the Foundation for Responsible Robotics raised concerns that the growth of lifelike sex robots could pose a danger to women and children. <\/p>\n
The author of the report, Professor Noel Sharkey, said submissive sex robots could encourage sickening sex crimes including abuse, rape and paedophilia. <\/p>\n
The Salvation Army has also warned that the rise of sex robots could fuel demand for people trafficking in the UK. <\/p>\n
In some countries primarily Japan sex robots are being marketed as potential cure for paedophiles and rapists. <\/p>\n
But ethics expert Sharkey, from the University of Sheffield, has called for a ban on sex dolls and robots that resemble children over fears sex crimes could become more acceptable. <\/p>\n
A sex doll (also love doll or blow up doll) is a type of sex toy in the size and shape of a sexual partner for aid in masturbation. We take a look at the most life like dolls available in the world. <\/p>\n

Sergi has challenged Sharkey, insisting it is too early to make such statements without sufficient research. <\/p>\n
He said: It is dangerous now to say: 'no to sex robots' or 'yes to sex robot. <\/p>\n
\"It is time to think and debate openly rather than argue with absolute statements. <\/p>\n
\"Only after the revolution is gone, and sex robots are established in our society, statements will be strong enough to be given I think.\" <\/p>\n
He also disagrees with Prof Sharkey on the issue of sex robots being able to feel emotions and love humans. <\/p>\n
Mr Sharkey the head judge of TV show Robot Wars said sex robots dont have any emotions and are a a pretty poor reflection of a human. <\/p>\n
But Mr Santos said that the professor has glossed over the real evidence. <\/p>\n
He told Daily Star Online: Some state that machines cannot love, others that they can only simulate feelings. Such comments are, at most, pseudo-scientific. <\/p>\n
There is no single law of nature that says anything about emotions being exclusive of naturally evolved creatures. <\/p>\n
My robot at the moment is extremely simple to a certain extent. <\/p>\n
But it is clear to anybody that knows about how computation evolves, will see what I have done as completely ridiculous compared to what we will have. <\/p>\n
What we will have will be completely exact to a human's behavior and looks. <\/p>\n
This will happen as long as we allow ourselves and we choose to do it, i.e. no laws make it illegal. <\/p>\n
SERGI SANTOS <\/p>\n
Computing philosopher and scientist Dr. Jordi Vallverd told Daily Star Online that more research needs to be done before sex robots are banned or approved to treat sex offenders. <\/p>\n
The academic, from the Autonomous University of Barcelona, said Sharkeys analysis of sex robots is flawed and based on Christian-Western prejudices. <\/p>\n
He said: Robots should not reproduce wrong behavior patterns, like child abuse. <\/p>\n
But at the same time it is certain that we allow our kids to play at very violent videogames, killing people as a fantasy without considering the necessity of forbidding these games. <\/p>\n
Obviously both situations should be banned, but at the same time the possible role of specific sexual dolls from a psychiatric perspective should be seriously evaluated before being banned or allowed. <\/p>\n
