A robotic life form simulates a live creature responsive to a changing environment sensed by the robot, and has a robotic body that is articulated for motion around an upright axis and supported by at least two legs, each having at least two joints. The neck of the body terminates in a head provided with eyes and a mouth, and, in the illustrated creature, has a tail. Internal and external input sensors are located on the robotic body and responsive to touch, sound and lighting conditions, motion, food, temperature, voice commands, time of day, and obstacles and hazards, and include a head touch sensor, a plurality of touch sensors extending along a torso of the body, and a plurality of touch sensors on the feet. Actuators responsive to the input sensors control the eyes of the robot, opening and closing of its mouth, movement of the head, movement of the neck relative to the torso, and relative movements of the front and rear sections of the torso to cause the torso to pivot and twist and thereby provide lifelike responses to the sensed conditions.

Laser lines at 635 nm or longer (ideally 647 nm) are preferred for red, giving energy-efficient, bright, rapid-motion images with rich, full film-comparable colors. Green and blue lines are used too—and cyan retained for best color mixing, an extra light-power boost, and aid in speckle suppression. Speckle is suppressed through beam-path displacement—by deflecting the beam during projection, thereby avoiding both absorption and diffusion of the beam while preserving pseudocollimation (noncrossing rays). The latter in turn is important to infinite sharpness. Path displacement is achieved by scanning the beam on the liquid-crystal valves (LCLVs), which also provides several enhancements—in energy efficiency, brightness, contrast, beam uniformity (by suppressing both laser-mode ripple and artifacts), and convenient beam-turning to transfer the beam between apparatus tiers. Preferably deflection is performed by a mirror mounted on a galvanometer or motor for rotary oscillation; images are written incrementally on successive portions of the LCLV control stage (either optical or electronic) while the laser “reading beam” is synchronized on the output stage. The beam is shaped, with very little energy loss to masking, into a shallow cross-section which is shifted on the viewing screen as well as the LCLVs. Beam-splitter/analyzer cubes are preferred over polarizing sheets. Spatial modulation provided by an LCLV and maintained by pseudocollimation enables imaging on irregular projection media with portions at distinctly differing distances from the projector—including domes, sculptures, monuments, buildings; waterfalls, sprays, fog, clouds, ice; scrims and other stage structures; trees and other foliage; land and rock surfaces; and even assemblages of living creatures including people.

In the preferred method, the elastic form stable material is injected directly into the affected area, thereby achieving the desired result.
