Nexi, a social robot created by scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology(MIT), can express human emotions. Roboticists at MIT call Nexi a “social robot”. 1. Nexi can look sad, mad, and even bored. Some social robots can also “read” our facial expressions.
2. Autom is a robot health coach. It has a screen where you enter information about what food you ate that day or how much you exercised. Autom has a face with eyes that move. 3. Autom gives you advice about your diet and exercise and drives you to do better.
In a test, Autom helped people lose weight better than other ways of recording diet information. Breazeal thinks it's because Autom used facial expressions and words of encouragement. In other words, Autom communicated like a real person. In fact, many people who used Autom gave the robot a new name and talked to it. 4.
In the future, humans may communicate with social robots just like they do with other people. 5. Let's wait and see what will happen in the future!
