Geminoid F, Geminoid HI-1, and Geminoid DK met their original humans, an anonymous young lady, Prof. Hiroshi Ishiguro of Osaka University, and Prof. Henrik Scharfe of Aalborg University, in Denmark.

This is the first (and probably the last) time that the Geminoid robotic family meet together with their human counterparts. As shown in the video below, it was a "crazy tea party". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J71XWkh80nc These androids are used as telepresence avatars who mimic the human operator's speech and emotion. Due to the very expensive shipping cost of the robotic clones, this sort of meeting might never happen again.
