Aomi area

Think of someone who is important to you. You may have many things that he/she said to you, things that he/she did for you that made you happy, and so on.
This person may be one of your source of emotional support.
How would you feel if that someone was a robot, or if a robot did the same thing for you?

This event of the Interactive Intelligence Project will feature a talk session by the researchers followed by a city meeting where you can talk with the researchers about the presence of the source of comfort and interactive robots. This will be an enjoyable event for first-time visitors.
