Robot will be able to draw people from sight with bionic hand
- Tuesday | 12th February, 2019
British gallery owner Aidan Meller hopes to go some way towards answering that question with Ai-Da, who her makers say will be able to draw people from sight with a pencil in her bionic hand. Ai-Da’s makers say she will have a “RoboThespian” body with expressive movements and she will talk and answer questions. Cameras in each of her eyeballs recognise human features – she will make eye contact and follow you around the room, opening and closing her mouth as you do. Ai-Da’s makers are using “Mesmer” life-like robot technology for her head, and once finished she will have a mixed race appearance with long dark hair, silicone skin and 3D printed teeth and gums. “(Mesmer) brings together the development of software mechanics and electronics to produce a lifelike face with lifelike gestures in a small human sized package,” Hold said.
