University of Massachusett’s uBot-5 is a robot that is being developed. This cheeky fellow does not actually have any hands yet, but one day hopes to become a home helper robot for the elderly.
uBot-5 will be able to handle tasks like dialing 911 for emergencies or unloading the dishwasher. The robot also contains a microphone and can act as a link to your telephone.
Across the hall at UMass, another group of students are working on a project called Dexter that has fingers to pick up objects with. They hope to combine the two projects soon and make a robot that can help the aging baby boomer population in the United States.
