Engineers have demonstrated a humanoid robot capable of producing tears on demand, adding to a growing list of lifelike behaviours in machines built to mimic humans. The demo is drawing reactions ranging from fascination to unease, with many saying the emotional display tips into the uncanny valley rather than making the robot feel more relatable.
Why now: A robot that can cry crosses a new line in lifelike robotics, sparking debate about how human machines should look and act.
