Chinese robotics company named AheadForm has developed a humanoid robotic head that can express a wide range of realistic emotions. 

In a YouTube video, the robot’s head glances around with a quizzical expression and blinks in a way that is eerily lifelike. It has captured widespread attention.

The company aims to improve how humans and robots interact. For this, it aims to create humanoid robots with lifelike faces with expressive facial features and moving eyes.

AheadForm states that it creates these realistic facial expressions by combining self-supervised AI algorithms with bionic actuation technology.

“We develop advanced bionic humanoid robots that integrate self-supervised AI algorithms with high-DOF bionic actuation, empowering future AGI to express authentic emotions and lifelike facial expressions,” the company’s website stated. 

Interestingly, the startup has been showcasing these “realistic humanoid robot” faces through its “Elf series.”

In this series, the company has been designing Elf-like robots with big ears. These “ultra-lifelike humanoid robots” are said to have up to 30 degrees of freedom, powered by a precise control system and an advanced AI learning algorithm. 

The company recently showcased its latest model, “Xuan,” a full-body bionic figure with a static body and a head equipped with an advanced interactive system capable of rich facial expressions and “lifelike gaze behaviors.” 

One of its models (Elf V1) is said to even “perceive the world, communicate, learn, and interact intelligently with its surroundings.”
