Prepare to be mesmerized by Mesmer, the lifelike robot
Mesmer automatically maintains eye contact
Advanced robotics has been cranking things up in recent years, and Engineered Arts has been busy because of it.
Prepare to be mesmerized by Mesmer, the impossibly lifelike robot that can be used to imitate anyone. This innovative invention is capable of displaying a wide range of human emotions.
These robotic lookalikes are made by sitting a person down in a ring of 36 cameras that take overlapping photos.
Those photos can then be made into a 3D model, which can then be used to duplicate the individual.
This process is called Photogrammetry
This process is called Photogrammetry. It’s how the Mesmer goes from nightmare fuel to a nearly convincing representation of a brand's or IP’s face, or any other use you see fit.
A human will control speech while Mesmer automatically maintains eye contact and adjusts micro-facial movements.
And don’t worry, you don’t need to know a single string of code to operate, thanks to Engineered Arts’ Tritium operating system.
