Toshiba Creates “Communication Android”



You never really cannot predict what will happen in the future. The technology is moving faster in the speed of light. 10 years ago, you never can’t imagine about humanoid robot that can speak like human. But now, this humanoid robot is knocking at your door. So be prepared and watch out for it.

If you talk about new technology, there is one country that you cannot forget. It is Japan. Japan is the land where many unbelievable and unimaginable inventions in technology are created. Perhaps it’s because the people are very creative and genius, or perhaps their eating habit and their education system are creating type of “out of the box” people.

If you talk about out of the box, there is one company which always think like that. In the Cutting-Edge IT & Electronics Comprehensive Exhibition (CEATEC) this week, Toshiba unveiled their new invention. They call it “Communication Android”. This communication android is a humanoid robot that can speak using sign language. The sign language is in Japanese, and in the future, the company may develop much different sign language that can accommodate various type of sign language around the world.

Toshiba's new robot is named as Aiko Chihira. Aiko is a female humanoid robot designed for maximum movement of fluidity in its hand and arms. Its movement is almost like human, even its facial gesture, is a woman’s special gesture. The humanoid robot is employ with 43 actuators in its joints. These actuators are necessary for Aiko’s ability to speak in Japanese sign language.



At CEATEC exhibition in Japan, Aiko can perform and mimic the way human speak in Japanese sign language. But there are some limitations in Aiko’s movement. The humanoid robot only can mimic some simple movements. One simple movement that can Aiko mimic perfectly is greetings.

But this limitation is a great challenge for Toshiba to create more invention develops perfect humanoid robot. In the year 2020, Toshiba has planned to add their humanoid robot with speech synthesis, speech recognition, robotic control and other important sensors. This development perhaps can create a different version of Aiko’s humanoid robot. Perhaps it will create humanoid robot that are not like robot anymore. It can create robot that more like human. Perhaps, in the future, Toshiba can create a robot with emotion like human. Who knows?

The purpose of this invention is to create a robot that can help and serve people. Those are people with disability. Toshiba said, they hope to create a humanoid robot that serves as a companion for the elderly and people with dementia. In the 2020, the company hope can really produce a robot that can offer tele-counselling in natural speech or in sign language. They also hope their humanoid robot can help health care workers or family members to take care their family, such as their elderly people.

For creating this humanoid robot, Toshiba works together with some well known academic institutions, like Osaka University, Shibaura Institute of Technology and Shonan Institute of Technology. These three academic institutions are responsible for some great technology inventions that are already launched in the world for some time.

Malala Wins Noble Peace Prize



Malala Yousafzai is an activist from Pakistan who concerns on female and children education. On 10 October 2014, The Norwegian Nobel Committee has announced and awarded Malala the Nobel Peace Prize. She has been struggling in children and youth liberation against the massive suppression. She becomes the second Pakistani who is given with this most prestigious award after Abdus Salam in 1979. As Malala wins the Noble Peace Prize, she also becomes the youngest winner ever.

Malala with her dedication on children and youth liberation says that every child deserves to go to school and to not be exploited in the name of financial. In many conflict areas, children are often made as the object of violation which leads to the never ending violence from one generation to the next generation. As this issue keeps going abroad, Malala declares that children and all the young people must be respected due their right as the part of the global development. Besides her struggle in releasing children from violence, she also hardly fights for the young girls to have an education. It has been done for years far before she finally gets the Nobel Peace Prize. Her fight is all done under the most hazardous situation and forceful pressure. The great struggle she has made, it brings her to become the lead speaker of young girl's rights for education. 

Malala is now known as the great wall to help the Pakistani girls out of the Taliban occupation. It starts with her writing on a blog addressed to BBC. Her blog tells about all the sorrow and injustice among the Pakistni young girls under the Taliban violation. It cannot be imagined that she was still 12 when she wrote the blog. Her efforts made the professional journalist, Adam B. Ellick to documented her life during the cold war in Pakistan. After that she was invited for some interviews on TV. And from that moment, Malala was nominated as the one of the most inspirational people for the International Children's Peace Prize by the former of the South African activists, Desmond Tutu and also her picture was put on Time's front cover which said Malala as one of the 100 most influential people in the world.



Malala's worldwide fame forced her to face several murder attempts. She had to receive some threats from unknown people in form of letters and message on Facebook. One of the scary threats was done on 9 October 2012. The Taliban armies stopped the bus and started to torture girls. One of the army shot her with bullet but she was safe from the brutal attack. This incident made her and family flying to Birmingham, United Kingdom for further treatment. From then, she's becoming the student of Edgbaston High School in Birmingham.

Not all of people agreed and approved her for receiving the Nobel Peace Prize, there are some people who questioned the final decision. There was one jurist who spoke up for her and supported her for being the right person to win the Nobel Peace Prize, his name is Fredrik Heffermehl.

Taylor Hatala: The New Dance Youtube Superstar

Young and naturally talented, that is 11 year old girl named Taylor Hatala. She now becomes one of the most famous new born superstars since her biggest sensation was uploaded on Youtube. With more than six millions viewers, she has been successfully introducing herself to the world of how fluent, energetic and fierce she is in performing the hip hop dance. It started with a short video of under 2 minutes duration entitled All About That Bass, Taylor Hatala came up on the dancing cube with a professional choreographer, Matt Steffanina.




All the eyes suddenly give a shot right on this skinny legged preteen girl due to her fabulous dancing ability. This new phenomenon seems to urge Ellen DeGeneres to invite Taylor Hatala to perform on TV show. As reported by Huffington Post, Taylor has been sparing her time for at least 3 hours a day to practice with her private choreographer, and it sounds crazy for such a young little girl like Taylor to make it through for 7 days in a week. It's kind of amazing hard work to call up for a devotion on dance. It must be a tough moment for her to race in time and split between school and dance.


I saw her videos on Youtube and all are just stunning. It's so clearly seen that she moves with passion. First thing that might come to mind when you see Taylor Hatala is a hesitation to the 11 year old girl with skinny body that can do adults' moves in such a way. May be she's not yet a pro but she just moves too fast for the eyes to follow. Taylor Hatala can proof that she has the capability as a young hip hop dancer with the help from the professionals. Her parents always espouse her for whatever she needs to improve her dance skill. Once she told her parents that doing dance is more than just fun and hobby but it's something that makes her happy. Taylor hopes that someday she will become a professional solo dancer.



Some people might see her as the lucky girl who's widely known by the Youtube but I see that she has the guts to face all the negative words that come to her. It's been something great for her to have the chance to be blessed with a amazing skill and bravery to cheer the others. I really notice that Taylor is just like other ordinary preteen girls who need time to catch up with friends but it seems that her dancing activities quite cuff. However, she is standing on great line and it's going to come in vain if she just runs back from it.

I am so sure there's still many of young kids like Taylor Hatala who can dance as she does now. Unluckily, those talented young kids are just yet unpublished by media, and it's not a matter. For parents who have kids, it's really important to find out their kids' interest and facilitate their capabilities to be improved to something good.
