Researchers have developed a robot named 'Emo' that has the ability to understand and mimic human facial expressions, including smiling in sync with humans during conversations. This advancement was showcased in Science Robotics, highlighting Emo's use of 26 motors and flexible silicone skin to emulate human emotions effectively. The robot, a product of collaborative efforts from Columbia Engineering's Creative Machines Lab and researchers at Duke University, has been designed to anticipate facial expressions, notably predicting and executing a smile approximately 840 milliseconds before a human does. This development represents a significant step in human-robot interaction, suggesting a future where robots can read and respond to human emotions in real-time.
