Who is Hatsune Miku?

Hatsune Miku is a popular character in a growing line of singing synthesizers based on the software engine called VOCALOID, developed by YAMAHA Corporation. Under license of this technology, the company Crypton Future Media created "Hatsune Miku". Conceived as a voice for composing songs, the Miku voicebank software was developed for the VOCALOID 2 engine and released on August 31, 2007 in Japan. The Hatsune Miku software box featured an anime-style character design with blue-green pigtails, along with a brief description of her character. It was a unique difference from how many companies advertised their VOCALOID products in the past. The first creations with the software and the Hatsune Miku character image sparked interest in VOCALOID software previously unforeseen, and quickly spread across the Internet through social networks and video sites such as Nico Nico Douga and YouTube.
