A Gynoid is a proposed term to describe a robot designed to look like a human female, as compared to an android modeled after a male. The term is not commonly used, however, with "android" often being used to refer to both "genders" of robot. To date gynoids exist only in science fiction.
Some fictional gynoids include:
- R. Dorothy Wayneright from the anime Big O
- The mysterious girl in the anime Metropolis (2001 movie)
- TX from Terminator 3
- Analee Call from Alien: Resurrection
