Animatronic faces are a central component of socially interactive robots, enabling rich nonverbal communication through facial articulation. However, state-of-the-art animatronic faces are typically tailored systems: each new facial geometry requires extensive manual mechanical redesign, making larg…
Orthognathic surgery is a crucial intervention for correcting dentofacial skeletal deformities to enhance occlusal functionality and facial aesthetics. Accurate postoperative facial appearance prediction remains challenging due to the complex nonlinear interactions between skeletal movements and fac
Previous animatronic faces struggle to effectively express emotions due to both hardware and software limitations. On the hardware side, earlier approaches either used rigid-driven mechanisms, which provide precise control but are difficult to design within constrained spaces, or tendon-driven mecha…
