Tinwell, Angela.
The uncanny valley in games and animation / Angela Tinwell.
pages cm
Summary: “This book is based on a series of empirical studies the author conducted to establish
how aspects of facial expression and speech may be manipulated to control the Uncanny Valley in
character design. It presents a novel theory that goes beyond previous research in that the cause of the
Uncanny Valley is based on a perceived lack of empathy in a character. This book makes an original,
scholarly contribution to our current understanding of the Uncanny Valley phenomenon and fills a
gap in the literature by assessing the biological and social roots of the uncanny and its implications for
computer-graphics animation. “-- Provided by publisher.
