So in this post you saw me playing with facial feature detection. I’ve used that to construct a robot (together with Ynze van der Spek) that tries to mimic your facial expressions, the robot was inspired on the MIMBO project, since ours ran on Windows instead of on an iPhone we’ve called it Wimbo. The robot was part of an exhibit at the Rijksuniversiteit Groningen for 2 months and was then moved to Der Aa-Kerk in Groningen for the ‘Nacht van de Kunst en Wetenschap’  (Night of Arts & Sciences).

Wimbo was build for Science LinX, an institute of the faculty of Natural Sciences at the Rijksuniversiteit Groningen that tries to inspire pupils to choose a career in science. The photos were made by Hugomatic

Btw, as you see this is not the third, and final, Farseer Physics tutorial, unfortunately I haven’t had much time to program on personal projects lately, but I promise I will try to finish it as soon as I can. Can’t give any ETAs though!
