THIS ROBOT'S FACE IS INDISTINGUISHABLE FROM HUMAN SKIN EVEN UP CLOSE
An expo booth showed off an android with skin so realistic that close-up camera shots don't give it away. Pores, slight redness around the eyes, individual eyebrow hairs, all built to hold up under macro footage.
The only giveaway is the neck. Under the hair and face sits a grey mechanical joint riddled with holes for wiring where vertebrae would be.
The android industry is clearly preparing for a world where faces like this show up outside expo booths too. The question isn't whether this level of realism is possible anymore, it's where the line sits for when it should be disclosed.
