Kibo Robot Project Site
The Kibo robot has a special mission:
To help solve the problems brought about by a society that has become more individualized and less communicative.
Nowaday, more and more people are living alone.
It's not just the elderly -- with today's changing lifestyles, it's people of all ages.
With a new style of robot-human interface, perhaps a way to solve this problem could be found.
This is the goal we have in mind for this project.
