Meet Jibo, the worlds first family robot built by MITs social robotics master
2014-07-16 18:41:18| Extremetech
Cynthia Breazeal, an MIT professor and one of the pioneers of social robotics, has unveiled "the world's first family robot." Called Jibo, the all-white desktop-sitting robot has more than a passing resemblance to a certain robot from a recent animated Pixar movie. The robot, which will cost around $500 when it's released, will have a range of abilities that will hopefully make it the perfect companion to have around the house -- such as telling stories to kids, automatically taking photos when you pose, easy messaging and video calling, providing reminders for calendar entries, and companionship through emotional interaction.
