At a guess I'd say its using the facial capture software used in Avatar and a lot of CGI movies and mapping it onto the animatronic. This is actually kind of a new idea since it means that the result is more lifelike but also means its easier to reprogramme them to say/do new things. This would be kind of interesting as it allows the ride to change over time without expensive refurbishing.
