Introducing... Speaking Fur Characters for Meet & Greets!
Living Character technology is always growing by leaps and bounds at the Walt Disney Parks and Resorts, and the latest advancement is already being tested at Disneyland, California. Fur characters (starting with Mickey Mouse himself) are now able to talk and interact with guests - in real time. There are a few threads here on the DIBB with links to videos showing the Mickey Mouse testing at Disneys California Adventure. Mickey can now speak with guests, and his mouth moves in sync with his words and his eyes can now also blink and move. Characters are already able to "speak" in time with pre-recorded tracks in the Magic Kingdom stage show "Dream Along With Mickey", but they do not talk in real time. This is a huge step forward in the level of technology used at Disney, and you can expect the new speaking fur characters to be rolled out across all parks at some point in the future.

As a deaf person I'm not happy they are going to be talking, as there is no way to lipread, it will be a nightmare for all deaf people, it was great for us when they just used gestures, so one person who's not happy about it, though I can understand hearing people thinking it's brilliant. Come on Disney, use your captioning technology somehow to let us deaf visitors know what Mickey is saying to us!
