The Japan Science and Technology Agency recently unveiled their Child-Robot with Biometric Body, or CB2
for short. Designed to mimic a one to two year-old toddler, it senses
the environment through optical, auditory, and 200 tactile sensors.
Then, the childbot can react, making facial expressions complete with
blinking.
51 actuators powered by air assure smooth movements, though the
robot can only stand with assistance. Not only does this limit of
movement give users the complete child experience, it also prevents
Asimo incidents on the stairs.
