TA12.11 / El Nino Photo

Choice 5 of 11

This image taken by an instrument onboard the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite shows water vapor content over the Pacific Ocean during the El Niño event of October, 1997. Red indicates high water content and blue is low. High atmospheric moisture corresponds to warmer water. The data show a shift in humidity (and warm water) to the east Pacific. The result was that the heavy rainfall that usually stays west toward Indonesia instead hit the west coast of North America.

Kismet robot. Researcher Cynthia Breazeal interacting with Kismet, a robot that responds with facial expressions to her actions. Kismet has been developed for the study of action recognition and learning. Kismet has several "moods", which it displays as expressions on its face. The researchers use movements as visual stimuli. Kismet responds like a baby. When there are no stimuli, it shows a sad expression. During play, as here, Kismet looks calm and happy. Too much stimulation causes it to become distressed. Breazeal works at the Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, at MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology), Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA. Work on Kismet started in 1998.

Choice 7 of 9

Kismet robot showing fear. Kismet is a robot that has been designed to show facial expressions in response to what happens around it. The robot has been developed for the study of action recognition and learning. As well as fear, there are several other "moods" that it can display. Researchers use movements (waving hands and moving toys) as visual stimuli. Kismet responds like a baby. When there are no stimuli, it has a sad face. During play, Kismet looks calm and happy. Excessive stimulation causes distress. Kismet has been developed by Cynthia Breazeal at the Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, at MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology), Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA. Work on Kismet started in 1998.
