Smile, and the robot smiles back. Raise an eyebrow, and it mirrors you PERFECTLY. Make a weird face, and... yeah, it does that too. Southbank Centre's facial tracking installation let visitors puppeteer digital characters using nothing but their expressions. Watching people realize their face controls the robot? Pure magic. Every. Single. Time.
