Zenbo family robot destroys Computex with cuteness before it even begins
OREANDA-NEWS. June 01, 2016. Asus made a surprise home robot announcement today at its Zenvolution press conference in Taipei, Taiwan. After its expected announcements across tablets, notebooks and smartphones, talk of a robot assistant was out of the blue.
The Zenbo is a cute, family friendly household assistant robot with a huge range of announced features.
Move independently around the house. Recognise faces. Play games with kids. Read stories. Search the web. Assist with recipes. Control by voice command. Take photos. Place phone calls. Run home security and smart home solutions.
In a video and with what looked to be a genuine live demo on stage, the robot was an absolute cuteness overload. It pulled cute faces, rolled around the stage with ease, took pictures of Jonney Shih with the crowd, answered questions (and failed to answer others quite gracefully, an intended part of the demo).
In the announcement, Asus Chairman Jonney Shih called on developers to work with Asus on the Zenbo platform.
"Together we can make ZenBo the best and most practical robot for every household," said Shih. "Together we can work on the next chapter of proactive computing."
