It is considered to be the most advanced robot in the world. He called this humanoid tobot America He has a gray face, a transparent brain and answers questions.
Ameca is also now seen at public events and school visits in Scotland as part of a project to improve understanding and build trust between humans and robots.
Developed by British company Engineered Arts, Ameca offers students and technology enthusiasts in Scotland the opportunity to learn about the future of robotics up close, Efe reports.
It’s called “humanoid” because it was designed to look and act like humans, using artificial intelligence (AI) to react, recognize and talk to people, with cameras instead of eyes and microphones instead of ears.
Its features include integrated microphones, cameras, facial recognition software, and articulated motorized components that allow it to interact with people in a natural and engaging way.
Ameca has a gray human face, can turn his head, has a transparent brain that lights up, and can answer and answer questions.
The robot traveled from Cornwall, England to Edinburgh in April to its new home at the National Robotarium in the Scottish capital, which is based at Heriot-Watt University and in partnership with the University of Edinburgh, a center working to develop technological robotics to have a positive impact to society.

Boys and girls from Lasswade School in the suburbs of Edinburgh interacted with Ameca, asking her questions, asking her to identify her drawings, watching her dance, speaking Chinese and even learning about her admiration for American singer Taylor Swift.
“These are technologies that these young people will be working with in the future, and it’s very important to give them the opportunity to interact and learn about technology and what robots are and aren’t and what they’re used for. to develop those skills and have that inspiration,” said Michelle McLeod, Head of Schools and Industry at The National Robotarium, during the students’ first visit to learn about Ameca.
The researchers hope that the arrival of Ameca will give people the opportunity to learn more about robots and will study public perceptions and attitudes towards humanoid robots, gathering valuable information for the development of future technologies that prioritize trust, transparency and ease of use.
Ameca was first seen in real life in early 2022 at The Consumer Electronics Show (CES), one of the world’s largest technology events held annually in the United States.
