Mother Continues From Where The Nabaztag Left Off

Mother Continues From Where The Nabaztag Left Off[CES 2014] I am quite sure that many of us were fascinated by the idea of Nabaztag when it was first unveiled quite a fair number of years ago. It seems that 2006 is a long time off now, and here we are in 2014 with something from the creator of the Nabaztag. Rafi Haladjian is the person of the moment here, and the latest creation would be known as Mother, which is actually a spooky looking white colored plastic Russian Doll that will be connected to a bunch of sensors known as cookies.

These cookies will then be able to perform various measurements, including those of motion and temperature, and based on the readings collected, they can alert you whenever it notices a change. For example, should you strap a cookie to the door where your medication is kept, but somehow or rather forgot to open it when you were due, the device would continue to nag you – just like mother did (hence its name, I suppose) until you do something about the situation. It remains to be seen just how popular something like Mother would eventually end up, as the Nabaztag did not exactly ring up phenomenal sales figures in the first place.

    Mother Is Your Robotic Material Substitute

    Mother Is Your Robotic Material Substitute[CES 2014] Sometimes parents can be a little overbearing and overly concerned about our welfare, and we suppose for those who are still too young to understand, this is something that you will miss when they are gone or when you are a parent of your own. However for those who are missing the attention and care that they get from the mothers, perhaps the Mother device by Sen.se might be worth taking a look at. As the name implies, this is a device that will apparently have the ability to learn, adapt, and even come to care for you, at least as far as artificial intelligence is concerned. (more…)

    Momtract Makes Every Agreement Between Moms and Their Kids a Legally Binding One

    Being a mom is no joke. It’s a tiring role, but with what’s expected of moms, they might as well call it a job. The hardest part is having to discipline the kids. It’s no fun, their hearts might break when they have to punish the kids, but it’s something that must be done all the same.

    Mother’s Day may have come and gone, but one thing that was created because of it lives on: the Momtract.

    momtract 1

    It’s a tool that was created by Mother New York, which essentially creates binding contracts for “sons and daughters to contractually forsake control over one part of their lives.”

    The contract goes on to make the following warning: “If you don’t meet the terms of the agreement, she can sue you.” The contract is legally binding for one year and “should there be a default on the contract, penalties include fines of up to $20,000 and a maximum number of 12 non-holiday visits from your wronged mother.”

    Check it out here, and draw a Momtract up between you and your mom. Remember, it’s better late than never.
