South Korean researchers unveiled this week a penguin robot called Pomi (for Penguin Robot for Multimodal Interaction) that can “EMIT SMELLS” based on how it “feels” (Why is this good?) The robot, which is designed to imitate human emotions, has a fake heart beat that changes tempo based on its emotional state. It can also interact with users via voice-recognition, and sensors that allow it to see and recognize humans. Pomi ships next month.
