A Hong Kong robot enthusiast has fulfilled his childhood dream by building a life-sized robot inspired by Hollywood stunner Scarlett Johansson.
Ma Ziheng, also known as Ricky Ma, is a 42-year-old Hong Kong-based product and graphic designer. He has spent more than $50,000 and 18 months creating the female robot prototype, Mark 1.
Ma turned mainly to 3D printing technology to fashion the machine’s body, which he then dressed with a gray skirt and tight white crop top.
