Anyone else think the costume would be about 17% more unnerving if the demon's face didn't look as if it had just been smacked with a cartoon frying pan?
I don't know. It kinda fits the cartoon eyes ;-)
I wonder how hard it would be for the digital eyes to track your actual eyeball motion.

I guess it would be tricky to fit an optical sensor under that under the mask, but maybe you can track eyeball motion by tracking the muscle movement around the eye?

Some quick tests (i.e. placing my hand on my face and moving my eyes around wildly) suggests that it might be doable. :) Possibly just by tracking how your nose twitches...

That's a great idea!

But eyes that are randomly wandering around are actually kinda creepy, too... :-)

I wholeheartedly disagree. It would be exactly 15.8% more unnerving.

But in all seriousness, I'll bet it would make a lot less difference in the dark.

On the contrary, if you lived through 1970's and possibly '80's TV science fiction, you saw lots of scary robots that had oddly projecting faces.

With that in mind, it's almost 4.2% more unnerving than the alternatives.

Kinda reminds me of Dr. Theopolis... anyone remember him?
it's cool. but it is in no way unnerving.
I think it would be much more unnerving in real life.
Not unnerving, but pretty awesome!
Don't miss the very end of the video.
lol, nice for pointing it out.
Major props for the reading material at the end. That's one of the best books on programming ever written, imo.
Can that voice changer be tuned to do a Bane voice?
