head towards any direction where something "sufficiently salient" happened,
then sure, that makes for a livelier, more entertaining demo. And so maybe
that is worthwhile.
But it also keeps her at the "dumb robot" level, reac
Hi LInas, many of your suggestions are good ones and should be added to the list
However, the "visual saliency" term was not invented by us -- and the
addition of this saliency detector was especially suggested by David H

Perhaps the #1 most important thing on the list is the "sudden change in
brightness" detector. During the demos people either cover her camera or
get up in her face, and say things like "can you see me now", and I would
really like to have the robot know w
