This time around a Chinese engineer who could not find a girlfriend married a robot recently.
The female robot named Yingying can identify Chinese characters and images and say a few words.
However, the wedding has not been officially recognised by the Chinese authorities.
Zheng carried his 30-kg bride as she is still not capable of walking.
He said: My dream of making my own spouse finally came true.
I want to see robots in every home, and ultimately I want to build a realistic robot girlfriend.
Zheng is a former employee of Huawei, who quit the smartphone company in 2014.
Yingying is also the face of his start-up.
There have been claims that humans will begin to marry robots by 2050.
