Korean Scientists Develop Female Android

Gynoid (from Greek óÏâ?¦í½í·, gyn – woman) is a term used to describe a robot designed to look like a human female, as compared to an android modeled after a male. The term is not common, however, with android often being used to refer to both “genders” of robot. The portmanteaus fembot (female robot) and feminoid (female android) have also been used; the latter sparingly. The term “Gynoids” was created by the female British SF writer, Gwyneth Jones, and developed by another British SF writer, Richard Calder who lives in Thailand. The word is derived from “Android” which denotes a robot with male attributes. Source: Wikipedia
