Met Ameca, The Humanoid Robot?

Ameca is an advanced humanoid robot built for human-robot interaction. It has a modular design which enables easy upgrade of hardware and software.

All the modules of the robot can run independently -- just a head, or even only an arm, full robot is not required.

It connects to the cloud to get the latest updates and can be customised and controlled.
