This little guy (or, rather, girl) is more than just a panda robot. It’s “Lucy,” a foreign language instructional ‘bot. The device is aimed at intermediate language learners. You practice your speaking skills by having a conversation with the device–and really, who wouldn’t want to learn English, Chinese, German, Japanese, French, Russian, or Hindi from a talking panda robot?
The device has facial, speech, and text recognition. The robot comes in three different varieties. Lucy is meant for desktop use, Samuel has a beam projector for playing movies, and Anthony can be controlled via remote. The devices can also be used for home security, thanks to their built-in video cameras.
