The Robot Of Sofia |
In America interviewed the new robot, which is hard to distinguish from a living person. The game spoke about his plans for the future, among which are work, family, and the destruction of mankind.
A robot named Sofia was presented to the founder of Hanson Robotics David Hanson (David Hanson). Before us is a humanoid cyborg that has "advanced" expressions, which makes it extremely similar to humans. Officer Hanson Robotics has interviewed the offspring of the company. The result is very interesting. So, the robot is told about his future plans. In particular, he said that "wants" to design, to learn new technologies and have a family. While humanoid cyborg said that now he can't be a legitimate citizen and not able to put all his plans in life. At the end of the employee jokingly asked the robot if he will destroy humanity, to which he replied: "Well, I will destroy humanity".
"Sofia is able to convey all the natural human emotions. Her eyes are cameras that allow it to recognize faces, so it can establish visual contact with you. It can also recognize speech, but also to remember your reaction and your face. This helps Sophia to become smarter, to improve and to be as smart and inventive as people are," says the developer.
David Hanson sees as its goal the development of machines that can engage in creative activities like a person. According to the expert, the future will bring a world of robots, outwardly indistinguishable from humans. However, of Hanson the latter, apparently, not very happy. Anyway, he wants the robots always remain robots. And when you look at them it always would be clear.

As far as the exterior of the new creation of Hanson Robotics, it was taken not "from a ceiling". The inspiration for Henson was the actress Audrey Hepburn and his own wife. Sofia can display over 60 facial expressions, and skin comes from a Frubber material.
Sofia is not the first creation of Hanson Robotics. Previously, experts of the company introduced a robot named Ham: at first glance, quite creepy. New technologies have allowed to give his appearance that made the robot is extremely similar to person even from a very close distance.
We will remind, earlier there was information that Google is going to sell well-known robot manufacturer Boston Dynamics. The reason of this step was the inability of the company to make a profit.
