JIBO - The World's First Family Robot

(and for sure the cutest!)

Jibo, The World's First Family Robot












He stands only 11 inches tall, but boy did this little robot cause a stir last summer when its makers pre-sold 4,800 robots raising $2.3 million toward a $100,000 goal on Indiegogo, making it a record-breaking crowdfunding campaign.

"Jibo is a social robot that comes with a core set of skills," social robotics pioneer and creator of the Jibo robot, Dr. Cynthia Breazeal, says. "It can perform these skills for you through natural and intuitive interaction -- speech plus other inputs such as vision and touch. Jibo learns from interacting with you in the context of his skills to personalize them to you. Jibo also can learn who you are by recognizing your face and voice."
