First hit:

Aha, they have not built sythetic humans yet, therefore, I could not be one.

Second hit:

Wait a minute...
The team created their synthetic humans using the 3D rendering software Blender, basing their work on existing human figure templates and motion data collected from real people to keep the results realistic.
