Beautiful:DL

But the robot just copies the human expressions recorded by the camera. That's still a long way from genuinely creating its own expressions depending on the situation.

I mean, we aren't even able yet to create programs that even speak a human language fluently:haha: (see google translate). How are we gonna create robots that respond in a human manner to different situations?
