The Robot That Loves To Be Hugged
July 30, 2008
“A robot that “enjoys” being cuddled and stroked has gone on display at London’s Science Museum. The Heart Robot could be among the first robots to signify a new era of “emotional machines” used for medical treatment and enjoyment, according to one of its inventors. It has a beating heart which rises when the body is shaken, but slows down when treated calmly.” w/ video
