JIBO The Family Robot Is Here To Make Your Life Easier

Jibo Robot

Having a family robot to make your life easier sounds like something from a 1980s sci-fi film but lo and behold the day is here - introducing JIBO… the world’s first family robot.

This little guy may have the looks of a household lamp but he’s actually rather clever with his ability to see, hear, speak, learn and help.

Two hi-res cameras in JIBO means he can recognise and track faces, capture photographs and even video call while a 360° microphone and natural language processor also mean you can bark commands at him from anywhere in the room (and he’ll actually be able to understand you).

And, JIBO can talk back, giving you hands-free messages and reminders so you’ll never miss a thing. And once he’s helped you out, JIBO learns through an artificial algorithm so he can know your preferences and adapt to fit your life, making every day a little simpler.

While JIBO sounds like a handy guy to have around, his ability to read bedtime stories does sound a bit creepy – maybe we’re not that ready for the future yet.

Find out how he can make your life easier here.
