Article Response: Expression Robots

What I didn't know: -That expressive robots had even been invented. -That we as humans use certain gestures and signes to tell if we should trust someone. -That robots were capable of being programed to appear emotional. Opinions: -It's kind of scary that soon enough robots could be human-like. -I don't really think that this invention is necessary. -This is creepishly similar to "i-robot" Question: Will every home in America own a robot at some point?

This week.

Sooo this week has been basically the first week class has really been in full swing here. It's a little overwhelming to be honest with all of the different projects we're juggling, But I'm getting used to it. I learned quite a bit about photoshop this week and my skills are drastically improving, although A LOT of the time it's been very frustrating but I've learned to be patient. I hope to learn a lot more when it comes to using photoshop so I can get projects done at a more efficient rate.
