If it's been designed to see things as a human would then that would seem to be a dumb artificial limitation. Why design a robot with only 2 eyes where it has to turn it's head to see.
I would hope that it has almost 360 vision, surely the point is to enhance, not to duplicate human weaknesses.
By all means it can have 2 visible 'eyes' and turn it's head towards someone if addressing a SLF (Soft Life Form
) but even when doing so it should be looking out the window, at the instruments and behind it.
