6.2 Cultural Analysis of The Truth About Robots and the Uncanny Valley: Analysis

I've decided to do my analysis on this article by Popular Science, called The Truth about Robotics and the Uncanny Valley.  There are cultural values represents the science and tech industry with phrases such as "robotics", "theory", "study", and "algorithms", showing a respect for scientific process and development.  Cultural references include references to film (such as the Polar Express), robotics companies, robotics experts, YouTube video comments, and other staples of the technology and robotics industries.

The author uses the scientific method, research and a lot of scientific terminology to discuss the plausibility and validity of the uncanny valley.
