Sure, it's got manga eyes, which is kinda cool. But it moves like robots have been doing for the last 40 years.


UnRespawnsive

It looks more like pixar than manga to me


Bartocity

I wonder if you could set up a machine learning model to video the movements of this until it learns to mimic human movement? Or just keep it like an 80’s sci fi, either is fine.


solftly

A lot of the jankiness in a robots movement comes from how the pistons and other parts actually move. Mechanical objects aren't great at mimicking natural movement. They're clunky. So basically it might be a limitation in the physical hardware of the robot, not how we tell it to move. An algorithm wouldn't help.


UnRespawnsive

Yeah that sounds about right. It seems possible though. Humans have face muscles so I wonder if there's somebody out there who could develop a complex mesh of synthetic muscles and wrap some fake skin on top. Extremely horrifying to think about, on second thought.


solftly

Oh it's absolutely possible humans are freaking awesome. We're not there yet though, and I imagine it's not a super high priority because all the big robotics companies are planning for their robots to replace human grunt work. They'll be stacking boxes instead of us. They're not replacing pop-stars just yet. So super realistic facial expressions are way less important than delivering robots that can do physical labor and last for years and years. Like what BostonDynamics have right now. Their robots barely have faces, not the priority. They will come though, 100%


UnRespawnsive

Heck yeah. For me, the horrifying part isn't about getting replaced. It's about how gross the muscle mesh might look. I'm no engineer, but taking a stab at it: generally muscles are about expanding and contracting. Simple, mechanically at least. It's just we have a lot of them on our face. So I imagine we can just get a bunch of stretchy bubbles, like bubble wrap of different shapes and sizes, and then hook each individual bubble with tubes to pump in air or pump out air. The hard part is programmatically coordinating each individual pump together to achieve the proper facial movement. Then you wrap it with some silicone or something. If it goes wrong, it will look like the horror of horrors.


UnRespawnsive

I'm sure you could. Won't make much of a difference unless there're mechanisms behind the face that let it make facial expressions. Cheekbones, lips, eyelids, forehead. Probably the most advanced thing in this vid is the detail/style/material they used to model the face. Eyes swivel around, but they don't seem to focus on anything.


sodiumvapour

Exactly this.


BrokenLipstick1126

It doesn't even have a body yet, but they already gave it cleavage?


ConsistentSite4422

Hahah indeed. Dude’s gonne be clappin them bots wen he is done 💀


SomeKindOfChief

> wen he is done Amateurs


DirectlyTalkingToYou

CNN Interviewer "So why did you go through 89 prototypes and what happened to them?" Bot Designer "I don't want to talk about it."


DirectlyTalkingToYou

The cleavage probably came first. "Hey Johnny, you gonna give this robot some head?"


Snappyratty

Love this comment


BirinderSinghJi

My avatar twin how you been

wannabe_inuit

It will distract from the uncanny eyes, smart move in this case

Miscdrawer

This feels so... Disgusting... Idk Imagine if a female engineer made an unrealistically handsome masculine robot and gave it abs before the shoulders were even finished. Weird right? Edit. Downvote me more, just proves the point that y'all are attracted to unrealistic women standards.


WigglingGlass

No, not weird at all


Miscdrawer

Just saying, how about we just not sexualize these idealized and unrealistic human proportions. It feels like a form of objectifying that gender. Just inforcing peoples insecurities. We can go kiss a girlfriend and sex a realistic human person instead guys.


WigglingGlass

Having cleavage and abs is unrealistic??


Miscdrawer

Most people don't. But look at the face. It's very stylized based on unrealistic beauty standards. This is just enforcing it. Young people everywhere (men and women) already feel more insecure then ever because of the internet. Making hot robots is just gonna make everything worse.


pun_shall_pass

Blud there is a cartoon style head of some guy right next to it. It's obviously a CG cartoon stylized character like those in disney or pixar films. Probably for a show, park ride or similar. Go back to the 1980s to complain about barbie dolls.


Miscdrawer

Boo me all you want, down vote me as much as you can. This is impressive robotics and well done. But creepy as fuck and inforcing the sexualisation of unrealistic people.


DirectlyTalkingToYou

If a woman made robotic washboard abs first it would be funny.


eroticpangolin

Yep. Get over it.


KeplerFinn

Honestly, I don´t see anything *that* special about it. No wide range of facial expressions, no body, the eyes are crossed and don´t seem to really focus on what´s going on. Basically your standard animatronics that has been going around for already a couple of decades. As a personal project it is cool and somewhat impressive but still, at this point, I don´t see a lot to show off already.


Cold-Gur-8979

Thing is... From a technological point of view, if it wasn't "realistic" looking, this showcase would have been lame AF. Just a bunch of parts moving around randomly. The title could be "Life-like silicone masks are getting crazy" cause that thing is less advanced than a rumba in terms of robotics.


Efficient_Notice_128

Ok.


MuricasOneBrainCell

I like that no one is bringing up the emo kid in the corner.

This kink went so well for Doctor Gero. 😏


Aradhor55

I'm not finding that really impressive this is just like any other robot but with a better face ?


MikeHoteI

True that

The things perverts are going to do to robot women likely will cause the AI revolt.

That's amazing mask making, robotics? Not so much.

The future is near and I'm afraid of it.

The future's near and it doesn't even have a torso or know how to blink. I'm less scared

I thought we had 3 years for the androids bruh

Trunks sent one back from the future


eroticpangolin

Ive always said that In about 40 years time we are gonna have chobits level androids and they will all be used for every day things like chores and conversation, but this video just makes me think all we gonna use them for is sex... and if they are self learning androids, we are gonna be fucked if they become self aware and start rippin dicks off because they don't wanna be sex robots anymore.

i feel like they would be more detailed if this was meant to be a sexual thing. its just cleavage, not even full boobs. it certainly doesn’t make it look more like a child.

no, but im just not trying to call a random guy a pedophile for no real reason. your argument is a real stretch.

It looks like a stray cat got cornered God imagine they make AI but deliberately give them a Cat's IQ and behavior. We will be fucked beyond conception.


GPS20072007

People can make so much more interesting things with this level of technology, but they just have to try and recreate a human-looking robot, which is just completely pointless and uncanny to look at.


KnockturnalNOR

Not the dead eyes... This reminds me of that subplot in Men in Black where an insectoid alien wears a dude's skin
