Sophia is capable of simulating all the major muscles of a human face. The Robot will include realistic facial expressions, eyebrow motions, blinking, aesthetically realistic moving eyes, mouth and jaw motion, head turn and neck motions, arm, hands and fingers.

The independently articulated eyelids, jaw, and expressive tongue motion, forehead actions, and multiple points of articulation on the lips, cheeks, and neck enables the Robot to exhibit a wide range of natural interaction constructs like smiling, frowning, scowling, sneering, happiness, anger, fear, surprise, disgust, sadness, confusion, boredom, questioning, neutral, and any kind of openly engaged expression.

This Sophia 2020 R&D version is now available for research, academic and B2B applications. Sophia 2020 combines the award-winning Hanson patented robotics hardware and software with unmatched robotics design and artistry.

Sophia 2020 includes Hanson Robotics' renowned facial expressions, gestural arms and hands, autonomous social interactions, an integrated SDK, and a choice of mobility bases, including a self-navigating option (not included).
