Pilot Labs today announced its Moorebot, a robot for homes, businesses and office use, via IndieGoGo. It combines robotic technology and cloud intelligence with a “one eyed” camera design that can abstractly mimic human eye expressions.
Moorebot can respond to its environment and learns to respond to various spoken commands and instructions. With four motors that control the movement of Moorebot’s head, eye lid and eyeball, enabling a wide range of fun and dynamic movement options.
Moorebot is designed to be cute, entertaining and to show emotions. By using the Moorebot app on a smart phone, users control the Moorebot and can get it to say or sing anything, adding yet another layer of customized personality. The Moorebot’s built-in intelligence features include voice recognition, voice commands and biometric recognition.
Moorebot can also be used for office, business and retail applications. For example, a supermarket can modify Moorebot to be a welcoming greeter that can answer questions like "where can I find beer?" A restaurant can program Moorebot to say “please take a seat” or to ask “would you like to know today’s specials?”
Moorebot can securely access and speak web-based information like weather, news, music, etc. It can download and read & perform stories, tell jokes, and even dance to music, entertaining people of various ages and cultures.
“The simplicity of the design reflects our focus - Moorebot looks good anywhere – homes, businesses, offices – anywhere people need information,” says Jun Ye, Co-founder and CEO at Pilot Labs.
“Our goal is to bring value, convenience, and FUN to people no matter where they are. It is so easy to use and set up that no manual is needed.”
