# Famous Scientist Robots Unresponsive Einsteinbot Gives People Blank Stares By Going Like Sixty | Published 2009-02-11 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/einsteinbot-dumber-than-a-bag-of-nuclear-physicists References: [botropolis](http://botropolis.com/2009/02/einstein-robot-greets-visitors/) In Japan, they have robots doing dishes and tai-chi, but watch this one geek try his best to get a response from an Einstein robot, but fail to get more than just a vacant look. Trend Hunter's huge collection of articles shows dozens of incredibly advanced robots, we even have our own [category](http://www.trendhunter.com/new/category/Robots)for them, so something as unresponsive as this 'bot is quite surprising for us to see. Supposedly, the designers at [Hanson Labs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/robot-ceo) have designed a bot that will follow with eyes, smile and frown when appropriate using [32 motors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vulcan-robot). This is the fourth such bot. Perhaps Einstein was just thinking “Who is this Einstein making faces at me?” ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.8/10 - Popularity: 27% | Activity: 80% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [AI](https://www.trendhunter.com/ai) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Advanced Robotics:** Opportunity to develop more advanced and responsive robots to enhance human-machine interaction. - **Emotionally Intelligent Robots:** Potential for creating robots that can accurately express emotions and mimic human facial expressions. - **Interactive Humanoid Robots:** Opportunity to design interactive humanoid robots that can engage with humans in conversations and activities. ### Who This Affects Most - **Robotics Industry:** Potential for innovation in creating more responsive and emotionally intelligent robots. - **Artificial Intelligence Industry:** Opportunity to develop AI algorithms to enable robots to mimic human emotions and facial expressions. - **Consumer Electronics Industry:** Innovation potential in creating interactive humanoid robots for entertainment and personal assistance purposes. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Humanoid Robot Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/great-robot-olympics.md) - [Interactive Companion Care-Bots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fourier-g3.md) - [Advanced Humanoid Robots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ameca.md) - [Cartoon-Inspired AI Robots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/butter-bot.md) - [Next-Gen Humanoid Robots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tesla-optimus-gen-2.md) - [Humanoid Robot Chefs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/robbyant-r1.md) - [Empathetic Interactive Game Robots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/forhpeus.md) - [General-Purpose Humanoid Robots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/figure-03.md) - [Dishwasher-Loading Humanoids](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/figure-02.md)
