The life-like effect on human emotions.
As strange as it may seem, when a robot displays characteristics similar to small animals people respond to it in a similar manner. This opens the door to practical applications where this technology can be useful.
Advanced IoT Toys:
In the home setting, it can provide emotional support and a sense of companionship to children, similar to a pet. Only this pet could be programmed to help monitor a child while they play and help lead them away from dangers and send alerts to a parent if needed.
Medical IoT:
In a medical environment, it could be used to comfort and monitor children, making them feel more comfortable while their vitals are monitored.
Going Forward:
Currently in the process of implementing facial recognition technology to identify a selected user for follow mode. Also looking for good 3D design programs that can be used to create body components that can appear like real animals and house the electronic components.
