Social school robot from NIT

Nippon Institute of Technology (Japanese Institute of Technology), together with the design organizations Harada Vehicle Design, ZMP and ZNUG Design, presented a robot that will go to primary school. The main task of this robot is social. He must show students that robots are no longer fiction and that they can be close to people and be useful to them. It is also assumed that the robot will increase the already high interest of Japanese schoolchildren in technical sciences.







The presence of the robot in the school clearly demonstrates the level of modern technologies in robotics, and that is not unimportant, the problems and prospects for the development of these technologies. In elementary school, children are most susceptible to new ideas, and it is these children who will ensure scientific and technical progress in the future. In addition, now robots are rapidly entering our lives and it is very important that our children learn to communicate with them.
