What happened
American scientists presented the robot “Emo”, which can accurately reproduce the facial expressions of the person with whom it communicates.
For this, the researchers created a predictive algorithm that was trained on a large set of video data where people express different emotions with facial expressions. It is able to predict a person's expression based on only initial and minor changes in their face.
Using "eyes" with high resolution cameras, "Emo" can "see" interlocutor and thus imitate his facial expression.
