Nadine is a gynoid humanoid social robot that is modelled on Professor Nadia Magnenat Thalmann. [1] The robot has a strong human-likeness with a natural-looking skin and hair and realistic hands. Nadine is a socially intelligent robot which returns a greeting, makes eye contact, and can remember all the conversations had with it.
It is designed as a platform for further developing robotics technologies involving human-robot interaction. [10] utilizes embedded microphones, binocular eye mounted cameras, a chest camera and facial recognition software to interact with the public. Interactions can be governed by either OpenAI's GPT-3 or human telepresence. She also features ...
In 2004, Hanson built the humanoid robot Hertz, a female presenting animated robot head that took about nine months to build. [8] Hanson is the founder and CEO of Hong Kong-based Hanson Robotics, which was founded in 2013. [9] Hanson has been published in materials science, artificial intelligence, cognitive science, and robotics journals. [10]
Ai-Da can be displayed in either a standing or seated position; although it has legs, it cannot walk. [12] A pair of cameras in the robot's eyes allow the robot to both make eye contact and, in conjunction with a computer vision algorithm and a modified robotic arm, create sketches of the robot's surroundings.

2024 HumanPlus In June, 2024, Stanford researchers announced a prototype robot that could mimic human movement to learn how to perform actions such as playing table tennis and the piano. [110] 2024 Digit In June 2024, Agility Robotics announced that 5 of its Digit robots had begun handling tasks in the factory of its customer GXO Logistics. [111]
Ai-Da Robot, named after Ada Lovelace, who is considered to be the first computer programmer, has become the first humanoid robotic artist to have their artwork sold by a major auction house.
A HUBO entered by TEAM KAIST was the winner of the DARPA Robotics Challenge finals on June 6, 2015. [ 7 ] [ 8 ] The machine, called DRC-Hubo, is an adaptable multifunctional device with the ability to transform from a walking robot to rolling on four wheels by bending and using wheels incorporated into its knees.
Takahashi prefers to work on smaller robots, as they are easier to handle and people have more realistic expectations of them. Unlike machines, which are cold and uninviting, humans can relate to robots because they have bodies like humans or animals, which opens up new possibilities for communication, which Takahashi believes is their greatest ...
