Ways Artificial Skin is Modernizing Humanoid Robots
Modern humanoid robots are now made to wear artificial skin. The skin used on these robots has no difference from that of humans in terms of look and physical appearance.
A popular robot manufacturing firm has just released visual information of sets of humanoid robots made with artificial human skin.
The robots were properly equipped to have a similar appearance to humans making them ideal for entertainment and teaching purposes.
However, the robots’ models can become the most friendly and companion robots to humans due to their unique human design and features.
Based on the tests conducted on the robots, they were all equipped with animatronics systems that aid them to perform various activities that humans would perform even beyond.
The visual release showed the robot blinking eyes, talking, smiling and frowning the face, etc. just as humans would do.
The robots’ skin has made it possible to confuse humans with robots in some crucial places where special missions are required.
If the approach of this model of the humanoid robot is adopted, then humans may have issues to contemplate in regard to the designs of future robots and how to possibly different robots from humans.
According to Evan Kirstel “The artificial skin and animatronics on these humanoid robots blur the difference between man and machine #robotics“
It is time for robots may be disguised as humans to bridge some security issues or carry out attacks on humans or be on the advantage side of making human life easier through their slavery by humans.

SUMMARY
The effects animatronics can give to the modern robots have made it impossible for the robots to have restrictions on how their face could change to reflect emotions during their speed.
