Yes, the Geminoid DK above isn’t a person, but rather one of the creepiest humanoid robots we’ve ever come across. It was “modeled after professor Henrik Scharfe at Aalborg University [and] was constructed by Kokoro and ATR.” Videos after the break.

The more things change, the more they stay the same: DK pulls off the beard quite nicely, but it still looks downright creepy when it smiles, blinks and breathes.
