Video features humanoid robot with ultra-realistic facial expressions
The robotics company named Engineered Arts, based in the United Kingdom, announced a video in which it presents Ameca: an impressive humanoid robot with extremely realistic facial expressions.
According to the company, the creation of Ameca “represents the cutting edge of human robotics technology”, specifically designed as a platform for the development of future technologies in the field of robotics. “Artificial intelligence and machine learning systems can be tested and developed at Ameca”, according to the promotional material.
For now, the gray robot is not yet able to walk. “There are many obstacles to be overcome before Ameca can walk”, explains the company. "Walking is a difficult task for a robot, and while we've done research on it, we haven't created a full-fledged walking humanoid."
However, this may change over time, as, according to the developer, the robot's modular architecture allows for future updates, both physical and software, to improve its capabilities.
Ameca was designed to serve as an application platform for Artificial Intelligence algorithms
The “faces and mouths” that the robot is capable of simulating are important tools to facilitate human-machine interaction. And that is the aim of Engineered Arts. “Ameca is the perfect platform to develop interaction between us humans and any metaverse or digital realm,” according to the product's website.
This means that scientists working with the development of Artificial Intelligence systems can use it as an instrument to apply their algorithms. “AI is usually just computer code, which isn't as dramatic as our realistic characters. But it's used for speech recognition and facial/object recognition, with which our robots can be programmed,” says the company.
For this, Ameca is available for both those who want to buy and rent. Since the values were not disclosed by the company, interested parties need to get in touch if they want to request a quote and more information about it.
