JIBO- World's first social & family robot.

Just think of a friend who is always with you, respects you, understands you , talks to you, welcomes you when you are back home, lives like a family member and makes you feel good with just a difference that its not made of the flash and bones instead some electronic circuits and motors.

It is made possible by Cynthia Breazeal the developer of Jibo and her team.This robot lives like a part of your family. It clicks pictures, talks to you, notifies you,entertains through interactive applications and equipped with many high tech functions along with the cute looks.

There are at least three things that make Jibo really exciting. The first is the price point, as little as $500 if you preorder. This price point reflects just how much the costs of sensors and other components of robots have come down in recent years. A second exciting aspect of Jibo is that developers will be able to write apps for it. It appears as though Breazeal’s team expects a marketplace for Jibo software. A third is that the team obviously put an immense amount of thought into how Jibo will interact with its users
