Meet Loona - The most Intelligent Petbot

Loona, a heartwarming robotic pet developed by KEYi Technology.


Through advanced technology, animation design, emotional interaction model, and artificial intelligence, Loona functions with realistic pet behaviors and motion performances.

 Loona includes a range of entertaining games and additional features, along with a cute approachable design for children.

Furthermore, with its 3D ToF (time-of-flight) camera, Loona can roam freely using four-wheel and two-wheel motions through its proprietary self-balancing design.

 Additionally, Loona features a high-performance CPU processor, allowing the chip to perform 54 trillion neural network convolution calculations per second, equating to one-quarter of PC's calculation capability, which is rarely seen in consumer robotics.

Loona is one of very few consumer robotic pets on the market offering a wide range of capabilities, functionalities, and companionship, allowing consumers to playfully interact, learn, and communicate through movement and reactions. With the COVID-19 pandemic taking a toll on many children's mental health and social lives, social robotics is becoming the new normal for children to develop meaningful, emotional, and realistic connections.

Scientists Create a Wearable Sensor for Plant Leaves to Detect Water Loss Early

Image
Plants can't speak up when they are thirsty. And visual signs, such as shriveling or browning leaves, don't start until it's too late. Metal electrodes have previously been used to monitor thirsty plants, but it's difficult attaching these devices to hairy leaves, which reduces their accuracy. Now, researchers reporting in ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces have created a wearable sensor for leaves that stays put, and makes it easy to remotely manage plants' water stress. Wearable devices for people are so sophisticated that some smart watches monitor the electrical activity of the wearer's heart, using electrodes that sit against the skin, and send the data to websites, which allow physicians to monitor and assess their patients from a distance. Similarly, plant-wearable devices could help farmers and gardeners remotely monitor plant health, including leaf water content – a key marker of metabolism and drought stress.

Google DeepMind is Using AI to Teach Robots to Play Soccer

Image
DeepMind, scientists have successfully trained low-cost humanoid robots to play 1v1 soccer. Using advanced techniques like deep reinforcement learning, the team was able to teach these robots agile skills and tactics, bringing us one step closer to having robots perform complex tasks in the real world.                                                                     Watch on YouTube The training process involved two stages, where robots first learned independent skills like getting up from the ground and scoring goals. In the second stage, these skills were combined into a single soccer-playing agent, which improved its tactics through self-play against previous versions of itself. This progress could lead to the development of advanced humanoid robots capable of performing complex tasks across various industries, such as assisting in disaster relief efforts or navigating intricate environments for search and rescue missions. Additionally, the study explores the potential of multi-a

Disney introduces a charming, roller-skating mechanical rabbit to help guests "emotionally connect"

Image
  Disney debuted a new robot prototype at SXSW Austin, Texas.  Watch on YouTube Designed to look like the bunny rabbit character Judy Hopps from the movie ‘Zootopia,’ the robot was unveiled by climbing out of a box, rollerblading across the stage and doing somersaults. She’s the size of a little girl, but has big droopy ears like a rabbit, and is wearing roller skates.  On shaky legs, she manages to stand up and regain her balance. With her first moves, it’s obvious she’s already formed an emotional connection with the audience. And with this, the little bunny robot does a front flip and bumps her head before recovering and finding her footing again. She’s then picked up and propped onto her creator’s shoulders like a child.
