Hiroshi Ishiguro was born on Oct 23, 1963 in Japan. Hiroshi Ishiguro's big-screen debut came with Sayônara directed by Kôji Fukada in 2015.

Hiroshi Ishiguro is the director of the Intelligent Robotics Laboratory, which is part of the Department of Systems Innovation in the Graduate School of Engineering Science at Osaka University in Japan. One of the notable developments of the laboratory is the Actroid, a humanoid robot with lifelike appearance and visible behavior such as facial movements. In robot development, Ishiguro concentrates on the idea of making a robot that is as similar as possible to a live human being. Ishiguro has also made an android that resembles him, simply called the Geminoid. The Geminoid has been used as a "teacher" to teach his classes at Osaka University of Japan. The robot has displayed realistic human like functions like blinking, "breathing" and fidgeting with his hands.
