New ARC program with the arduino
So far he can:
move his eyes
move his head
move his mouth, timed with the words he is speaking
still needs cosmetically a better face, skin - looking around
By the way, I can get him to use AIML Bot / Bing Speech Recognition - I ask him questions, he audibly answers me.

The current biggest example of creepy uncanny valley is that sophia "robot". I put "robot" in quotes because it's just a poorly animated & pre-scripted mannequin - slightly more advanced than the animatronics on the disney world "Its a small world" ride
Here's an example of how terrible creepy and bad sophia robot is... ugh... Everything about this video makes me cringe. Sophia is an embarrassment to our efforts in this industry. Little do the creators know how much damage they're doing to the industry...
I also think a robot should look like more like a robot, :-)
I am more focused that the:
eyes move
head moves
mouth moves, timed with the words he is speaking
Also have him working with AIML Bot / Bing Speech Recognition
