NEC PaPeRo goes Mini
May 9, 07 09:03 AM PDT
Looks like the miniaturization bug has hit the PaPeRo robot from NEC. Unimaginatively dubbed as the PaPeRo Mini, this smaller version measures 250mm x 170mm x 179mm versus the 385mm x 248mm x 245mm of its predecessor. This reduction in size does not mean a similar approach has been taken with its features as the PaPeRo Mini still incorporated amazing speech recognition and signaling features as well as conversational capabilities that were associated with the original PaPeRo. Robots are still the playthings of the rich, and until the price of such devices drop down to affordable levels, we plebians can only drool over them.

I read about this in a book. When it comes to features... THE SKY IS THE LIMIT!
