Socially and emotionally intelligent robots pose an incredible opportunity not only for the market but for our loved ones young and old. Embodied has built an advanced social interface that enables human-like interaction: changes in the intonation of voice, smiling, reading body language and eye contact, and more without long, awkward pauses or the need for the use of constant wake words. <\/p>\n
Moxie the robot has helped neurodivergent and neurotypical children with social, emotional, and cognitive development. This includes specific content modules and conversations around making mistakes, reading, emotional regulation and recognition, making friends, and more. It has the ability to recognize progress and understanding of topics and can prompt children when it detects the child could benefit from further development in an area. Moxie is also able to respond with eye contact and gesticulate with its arms, making for a more believable, personal experience. <\/p>\n
This framework is being applied to service additional populations, including senior citizens, adults with mental illnesses, neurodivergent adults, people experiencing loneliness, and more. During his talk at RoboBusiness, which takes place in Santa Clara, CA, on October 18-19, Dr. Paolo Pirjanian, the CEO and Founder of Embodied, will explain the considerations and developments going into this new iteration and offer an onstage demonstration. <\/p>\n
Pirjanian is the former CTO of iRobot and an early leader in the field of consumer robotics with 16+ years of experience developing and commercializing cutting-edge home robots. He worked at NASA JPL and led world-class teams and companies at iRobot, Evolution Robotics and others. In 2016, Paolo founded Embodied with the vision to build socially and emotionally intelligent companions that improve care and wellness and enhance our daily lives. <\/p>\n
RoboBusiness is the leading event focused on developing commercial robots. There will be 60-plus speakers, 100-plus exhibitors and demos on the expo floor, networking receptions, thePitchfire Robotics Startup Competitionand more. You can check out thecurrent list of speakers, to which more will be added. <\/p>\n
RoboBusiness will be co-located with theField Robotics Engineering Forum, an event focused on successfully developing robots that operate in wide-ranging, outdoor, dynamic environments. <\/p>\n
Also co-located with RoboBusiness is DeviceTalks West, the premier industry event for medical technology professionals, currently in its ninth year. Both events attract engineering and business professionals from a broad range of healthcare and medical technology backgrounds. <\/p>\n
