We always knew about Japan’s obsession for robots, but least did we know that they have also brought their phones to communicate with the bots. The RobotPHONE is a new form of phone for the bots to converse with each other and even with their human mentors. The RobotPHONE is a Robotic User Interface (RUI) that uses robots for interpersonal communication among users. These bots use not only voice but also gestures to convey data. The RobotPHONE has two prototypes – a snake-like robot and the cute cuddly teddy bear. These prototypes are fitted with body and motor joint angle sensors, microphones and speakers. The RobotPHONE in the future is expected to help one in a remote location to connect to the Internet or the cell phone – incredible indeed.
