PEPPER 心を持ったロボット!

A robot developed by Softbank incorporation with Alderbaran Robotics and Foxconn. Pepper?? I guess its shape looks like a pepper shaker?? Its specialty is to mimick human behaviour and interpret/analyse the emotional state of the human to which it is speaking. It has a 10" big screen to better express itself visually.

It has various sensors (3D and sensory) , cameras , microphones, accelerometers like other robots but its strength is in emotion analysis , not much in human-like articulations (it walks on wheels and uses 20 motors for movements) . It uses Wi-Fi  to connect to the Cocoro SB  (in Japanese kokoro means heart 心, not the one that pumps blood) which is a cloud-based system to aid its emotion analysis and decision-making.

Pepper can learn from past interactions and store its accessments to an online database which will analyze the data and assist Pepper in future social situations.

I guess it can't follow you to the stairs......

Available in 2015.

SDK (Software Development Kit) will be available and presented in September, 2014.

Just give me Kikaida!
