What is the actual of the real?
Human is creating somethings that not really real to us, but expecting us to assume them is a real....Almostly, but not perfectly but with a realistic human appearance, is
called the uncanny valley.
And!! is not limited to robots, but is also applicable to any
type of human-like object, such as dolls, masks, facial caricatures, avatars in virtual
reality, and characters in computer graphics movies.
Facial images yielded the most unpleasant impressions when they were highly
realistic, supporting the hypothesis of the uncanny valley. However, the uncanny
valley was confirmed only when morphed faces had abnormal features such as bizarre eyes. These results suggest that to have an almost perfectly realistic human
appearance is a necessary but not a sufficient condition for the uncanny valley. The
uncanny valley emerges only when there is also an abnormal feature.
