Small movements of arms to replicate emotions give life to the robot and makes it much more memorable with physical movements.

The body language is very well portrayed by the movements

This being doesn’t necessarily need to be a human. So long as the “thing” acts alive. It will feel alive.

I think that keeping and improving the way it interacts with the world and how it moves is a key quality for future companion robots.

Though I feel for now, it does feel static as there isn’t much variation between each action it does. Each action will always go the same way.
