6.4 Analyzing Audience in The Truth About Robots and the Uncanny Valley: Analysis

The article could be said to have both a primary and secondary audience.  The primary audience would be those interested in robotics or animation, who are reading the article because it mentions a topic that interests them.  The secondary audience would be the rest of the demographic that would read Popular Mechanics, mainly those with at least a passive interest in science and engineering.  As the article deals with a specific theory of a specific industry, it's definitely not a 'general audiences' piece.  The article is directed at people with an at least 'passive' interest in robotics.

  1. I have no clue on this subject of Robots so I tend to agree with you that it is not intended for the general audience but more towards an audience with a specific interest in robots.

  2. I find your topic very interesting! I love robots and I find them so fascinating! ONE DAY ROBOTS WILL TAKE OVER THE WORLD! Just kidding! I would agree with you that the audience would have to be people who are actually interested in robots or who have the same major as you. Overall, good job!
