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.

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... :-)

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?

I was thinking more along the lines of the Mr. X thing (http://bionic.wikia.com/wiki/Day_of_the_Robot) or perhaps the lovely and talented Mr. R.I.N.G. (http://terrortitans.blogspot.com/2010/10/complete-night-stal...).
