Two interesting "bots" if you will...
« on: June 02, 2012, 12:40:15 am »
First, a previously "unknown" animatronic robot head/face that moves and emotes in an extremely wide variety of ways. It's brow raises, eyes cross, mouth / lips contort in many ways and even the jaw can move from side to side. Ears are also quite responsive and the motions are very fluid, especially the eyes. Very nice work on this creation.

Leonardo - It's sort of a work in progress. It learns and can exhibit emotional responses based on what it knows in it's database. Dr. Cynthia Breazeal has done a tremendous amount of work in helping to develop this project. You might recall one of her previous works and likely forerunner named Kismet. Though Kismet was more rudimentary than Leonardo, it helped pave the way. Very cool indeed!!

In the world of AI, it's the thought that counts!

Very nice, I think these are much better than human animatronics.  I liked that they used audio from Bladerunner in the first one.  I had seen the second Leonardo before and yep I think it's outstanding the way it reacts.
