It's following a set series of commands, and isn't reacting to anything that's happening around it. It's an interesting cybernetic head and nothing much more i'm afraid.

Yeah. Most likely a combination of voice recognition and thermal sensors. It's progress, though.Quote:

That's really what all androids will be like. I don't think they'll ever be able to have a true sentient presence, just a faux one. I mean, we couldQuote:

No, i mean, this isn't even reacting to things about it. Watch it-it's clearly just an anamatronic head, like WilletFX's monstermod. It's hooked up to a computer that controls servos to make it 'talk' in a realistic manner. This is not what it's being advertised as, trust me on this one. For one thing, if it were, then there's no reason it's creator would ever part with it, for all the money in the world. It's just a robot head.
Personally, Willet's monstermod would pwn that thing.

Yeah, it only has a few pre-porgrammed phrases in it I guess, to specifically respond to what he says.
That would make a great butler or servant of some sort though, heh heh, no rebellions here. :D Or having to pay them wages or have housing, hee hee... but yeah, like the servo on The Sims...
They need to make robots that don't suck up.
