The unnamed robotic dancer features in a New York-based exhibition by 33-year-old artist Jordan Wolfson. It uses face recognition technology to follow viewers around the gallery with its gaze, which is reflected in a large mirror
The robot is supported by a pole fixed to a mirror, allowing it to gyrate to songs by Lady Gaga and Robin Thicke as well speaking and lip-syncing
