mr. roboto

How cute is this robot? I just want to squish its cheeks! This robot is supposed to help with human care, probably more along the elderly. It's equipped with tactile sensors so it can measure the force of contact, that way it doesn't crush anyone. As you can all see the squishiness factor, so it's human friendly. As well, it has human like ears so it can locate things. I'm sure none of you need this option but it can detect several smells (such as urine)! Could you imagine these in the assisted living centers or even one with the grandparents? Honestly, compared to what the robots in I, Robot looked like, I would much prefer this one!
