Japan’s Business Design has a new MechaDroid Type C3 robot receptionist. It was being shown off at Tokyo’s CEATEC conference. I really like this kind of robot’s facial look. Just seems personal and less cold. It offers emo feedback with digital expressions and audio responses. The robot also uses face recognition technology to interpret the needs of visitors and then it will assist them with information or directions that are displayed on a touchscreen panel. When released commercially, the robot will likely go for around $28,000.
