# s-behav: soon we'll love the way Japan loves ...

<< Japan has a long ongoing love affair with humanoid robots >>

<<  It involves the concept 'The Uncanny Valley' (translated from 'Bukimi no Tani Genshō'), which was coined by Japanese robotics professor Masahiro Mori in 1970. It means that there is a correlation between how human a robot's appearance and actions are and how we view them >>

<< In Buddhism or Animism, everything has a spiritual aspect, including machines >>
