A British company reveals a robot with incredibly expressive facial expressions

Engineered Arts have released a demo video featuring the Ameca robot. In the video, the robot realistically mirrors human emotions.

Engineered Arts has been making impressive advances in artificial intelligence, and this year they began using it to develop robots. In early 2021, the company released the Cleo robot. It managed to hold conversations with people whilst simultaneously skillfully gesturing.

The new Engineered Arts creation has remarkable communication skills. For example, the facial expressions of the Ameca robot are completely indistinguishable from their human counterparts. You can experience this for yourself by watching the demo video.

In the video, the robot appears to come to life, recognises itself and then addresses the audience by offering friendship. Astonished users even compared Ameca's acting skills to the work of some of the leading Hollywood stars.
