Japanese scientists have successfully created robots that are capable of pulling off an inspirational training montage, glistening robo-muscles and all. Their creations have anatomically correct musculoskeletal structures like spinal joints, and their body mass and proportions resemble our own. One robot, “Kengoro,” can even sweat.



Engineers in Japan have constructed two humanoids that successfully replicate human-like movement during physical activity. The robots, named Kengoro and Kenshiro, can perform multiple push-ups, crunches, stretches, and other whole-body exercises — feats not possible for earlier versions of human-mimicking bots to perform.
