February 28, 2008: Robot Baby



This is the iCub or Robotcub. Over the next four years, researchers at the University of Plymouth plan to teach it to talk using observations of the way parents teach their babies. Note that it's toddler size. They seem to view this as important. i wonder if it also has virtual diapers? Perhaps operating on a sort of GIGO principle?
