The pioneering feat, reminiscent of the iconic alien robots from Hollywood’s science fiction epics, was executed by Turkish company Letvision back in 2016.

Letrons, the brainchild of Letvision, can be operated remotely and showcases dynamic hydraulic controls enabling neck, head, arm, and hand movements. Although the transformation appeared almost magical, users acknowledged the authentic engineering work that led to this spectacle.
