Han is a humanoid robot created by Hanson Robotics. He was first activated in 2015 and debuted the same year at the Global Sources Electronics Fair.[1] His skin is made of Frubber. He can detect people and their gender, age, and emotional expression. [2] He mainly consists of a head that can be mounted on multiple sources including a glass-looking body with hands. His main purpose is to help humans find contentment. [3]

At RISE conference 2017 in Hong Kong, Han debated with Sophia, another robot by Hanson Robotics about different topics such as the singularity and robot consciousness.[4]
