China has unveiled a new realistic, interactive and stunningly attractive humanoid robot on Friday, a creation by the University of Science and Technology of China in Anhui Province's Hefei.

Dubbed as "Jia Jia," the stunning robot goddess is extremely realistic. She has a beautiful face, a long wavy hair and quite the body.

"Hello everyone, I'm Jia Jia. Welcome!" the attention-grabbing robot greeted the audience during its presentation at the university's multimedia center, according to Xinhua. "Don't come too close to me when you are taking a picture. It will make my face look fat."

It took the research team, spearheaded by Chen Xiaoping, three years to create Jia Jia, including its humanoid robot features such as speaking, natural eye movements, facial expressions, moving lips and moving body. They are also teaching her how to cry and laugh.

The developers said she can learn skills and recognize human faces. She can also speak both English and Mandarin.

Jia Jia is programmed to identify human interaction and is equipped with a cloud-based system for memory storage.

"We hope to develop the robot so it has deep learning abilities," Chen said. "We will add facial expression recognition and make it interact more deeply with people."

Jia Jia will be displayed at the China International Technology Fair 2016 in Shanghai between April 21 and April 23. The robot is valued as "priceless"; thus, for now, the developers they have no plans of mass producing Jia Jia, yet.

The robot, however, is not the first realistic fembot created. Earlier this month, Ricky Ma has unveiled his own life-like replica of famous actress Scarlett Johansson.
