SEOUL, Oct. 18 (Xinhua) -- Prices for imported products in South Korea rose for three straight months in September due mainly to more expensive crude oil, central bank data showed Wednesday.


The import price index stood at 82.62 in September, up 1.7 percent from a month earlier, according to the Bank of Korea (BOK). It continued to rise from July, marking the highest in seven months.


The import prices are reflected in consumer prices with a certain time gap. Higher import prices were attributed to more expensive crude oil, which affects the broad range of products manufactured here.


Dubai crude, South Korea's benchmark, averaged 53.66 U.S. dollars per barrel in September, up 6.8 percent from a month earlier.


Prices for imported raw materials increased 2.7 percent, with those for intermediate products rising 1.8 percent.


Those for imported capital and consumer goods inched up 0.2 percent and 0.3 percent each last month.


Meanwhile, the export price index gained 0.9 percent in September from the previous month, continuing to rise for the third consecutive month.

DUBAI, Oct. 9 (Xinhua) -- China's Hanson Robotics, producer of the celebrity humanoid robot Sophia, is partnering with United Arab Emirates' (UAE's) biggest telecom firm Etisalat for future sales of its robots in the Middle East, the company said Monday.


With Etisalat's help, Hanson Robotics, based in Hong Kong, is showcasing Sophia at the ongoing IT fair Gitex Technology Week, which has gathered 4,100 exhibitors from over 70 countries including China.


Jeanne Lim, Hanson Robotics' chief marketing officer, hailed Etisalat for its interest in artificial intelligence, while adding that Hanson's partnership with Etisalat is ""still in a test phase.""


At Etisalat's stand at Gitex, visitors can talk to Sophia and ask her questions in order to test her humanoid capabilities.


Lim told Xinhua that the use of Sophia in the education and business fields converges with Etisalat's support for digital educational strategy implemented in the UAE.


""Sophia can be used as an educational toy,"" Lim said, stressing that Sophia fits into the UAE's digital educational strategy.


Sophia, designed by David Hanson, a former Walt Disney Imagineering employee and founder of Hanson Robotics, looks like Hollywood legendary actress Audrey Hepburn.


It is a lifelike social robot that can establish relationship with people through 60 programmed facial expressions.


""Sophia is a media personality, she was part of a movie and on a TV show,"" Lim said.


However, Lim said that more work needs to be done for the commercialization of Sophia, and a proper plan is needed to be designed by Etisalat to put the robot into commercial use at the shopping malls, schools and hospitals in the UAE.


So far, Hanson has only launched the consumer robot Professor Einstein for private homes in the United States, as it has not yet started large-scale manufacturing of the robots.
