The world's most human-like robot has begun work as a university receptionist as scientists predict the new technology will eventually provide childcare and offer friendship to lonely elderly people.

世界上最逼真的人形机器人“纳丁”已经开始了她作为大学接待员的工作。科学家预计这种机器人最终将能承担保姆和护工的工作，为幼儿和孤寡老人提供服务。

With her soft skin and flowing brunette hair, Nadine does not only meet and greet visitors, smile, make eye contact and shake hands, but she can even recognise past guests and spark up conversation based on previous chats.

纳丁有着细嫩的皮肤和柔顺的深褐色头发，她不仅会跟参观者打招呼、微笑、进行眼神交流和握手，甚至还能认出老熟人，并与他们继续上次未聊完的话题。

Unlike conventional robots, Nadine has her own personality, mood and emotions. She can be happy or sad, depending on the topic.

不同于传统机器人，纳丁有自己的个性、情绪和情感，她可以根据谈话内容表现出高兴或是悲伤。

Powered by intelligent software similar to Apple's Siri or Microsoft's Cortana, she is the brainchild of scientists at the Nanyang Technological University in Singapore and is based on her creator Prof Nadia Thalmann.

纳丁是新加坡南洋理工大学（NTU）科学家们的智慧结晶，其运行机制类似苹果Siri或微软小娜，她的外貌完全是按照其创造者纳迪娅·塔尔曼教授的样子为蓝本。
