Utilizing new technologies developed by Disney Research and Walt Disney Imagineering Research & Development, Imagineering’s latest free-roaming robotic characters are capable of great balance and highly expressive motions. They can support myriad character activations, like a Star Wars-inspired droid. Recently, as part of a one-day playtest in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at Disneyland Park, Imagineers teamed-up with animators to design droids in training with impossibly cute personalities. We can’t wait to see where this exploration, developed by the galaxy’s brightest minds, might go!

Disney figured out that the best way to simulate droids is to literally build droids.

They remind me of little penguins waddling around. I hope we get more amazing tech like this, because it's amazing.

I love how all of the motions it makes are seamless with each other, it really sells the character and emotion.

An apocalypse occurs, and somehow, these are the only things to survive. 500,000 years later, Star Wars happens again.

The look and behave like little ducklings!!! Cute!

These little guys would be immensely valuable in the children's ward of any hospital.

They found a way to make these tiny droids seems human like but also non threatening. I really like they way the heads wobble when they walk.

I love the tech. It sounds like they're using a neural network to take in an animator's example movement combined with adaptive walking algorithm to yield a personality robot that can also walk. I would expect to see some very striking large robots in the future too. This same system would work with that and the engineer mentions it in the video.

The little head shakes is the most precious thing

They are so cute! Really capture the charm of BD-1. Maybe in a few years they can get this technology to a point where we can build our own BD units at the Droid Depot. I would book a flight and get a day pass to Disney World just for that.

They do have that walking of the penguins at a zoo feel.👍🏆👍

having the 2 antena that can rotate up and down like dog ears is a great touch. Dog ears are great for expressing emotions and feelings. they are like cute robot puppies.

It's great seeing talented people blur the lines between movie magic and science.

This is awesome. I think it'd be cool to even have the droids with mis-matching colored parts/missing panels and simulated wear and tear. Would be great for immersion.

What a refreshing breath of fresh air, especially amongst the ongoing panderverse reboot failures!

This is when Disney is doing their craft correctly. A success without politics or agendas. This is the Disney I want it to be.

Make recharging docks so they can automatically charge themselves and just walk around forever.

I saw these on a Disney YouTuber’s channel a couple weeks ago… I instantly fell in love, I can’t wait to someday meet them in person!!
