説明

BOCCO emoはYukai EngineeringのConsumer-Robotです。 コンパニオン、付き添い、モニタリング向けに設計されています。 主な数値：2021年発売。

BOCCO emo is Yukai Engineering's family communication robot, a small snowman-shaped robot that talks with household members, remembers what they say and expresses emotions. It succeeds the original BOCCO, launched in 2015 as a way for children without smartphones to message their parents, and was introduced in 2021 with a more emotional design. A red pompom on its head moves like a pendulum on a coil and magnet, wagging like a pet's tail to show feelings, and its cheeks light up and change colour with its mood; it answers greetings and mutterings in its own 'emo language'. A microphone array on each side lets it tell which direction a voice comes from and be called hands-free by name, and illuminance, vibration and human-presence sensors let it read its surroundings. Its conversation engine was co-developed with the Seaman Artificial Intelligence Laboratory. Family members exchange voice messages with it from a smartphone app, and it gives reminders, weather and disaster-prevention information, time signals, timers and alarms, and can link to optional vibration and lock sensors. It comes as a Wi-Fi model bought outright or an LTE rental model for homes without Wi-Fi, and a premium plan adds natural conversation, memory and voice recognition of family members.
