Tomyris, equipped with artificial intelligence, can display nine different facial expressions. Since its establishment in 2002, Biorobotec has utilized the advantages of Ulutek Technopark to work on coding education kits, assistant robots, and humanoid bionic robots.
Following initial collaborations with Bursa Uludağ University's Computer Engineering Department, the firm produced "Cuma," which can mimic hand and facial movements and distinguish between genders and ages.
Tomyris, the first example of the second phase, was completed in 40 days and can express emotions through facial movements.
Ongoing efforts aim to enhance Tomyris's capabilities in image processing, language understanding, emotion analysis, and responding to questions.
Currently, Tomyris's upper body is being manufactured, and silicone skin work is in progress for a lifelike appearance.
The goal is for Tomyris to gain new skills and serve as an assistant in institutions within four years.
Owner Adem Aksu stated that they completed the first phase with Cuma last year and have now begun the humanoid robot phase with Tomyris.
He noted, "In 40 days, Tomyris can currently reflect nine different emotional states on its face. This is why we call it 'Türkiye's first true humanoid robot.' In the future, through artificial intelligence, it will be able to adjust its emotional state based on the person it interacts with."
