London, Britain (AHN) - A joint research project by a European team-led by British researchers is developing a robot that can interact with people emotionally.
The research project, Feelix Growing, involves six countries and 25 roboticists, developmental psychologists and neuroscientists.
The project's coordinator Lola Canamero, from Britain's University of Hertfordshire, said that the aim is to develop robots that grow up and adapt to humans in everyday environments.
"If robots are to be truly integrated in humans everyday lives as companions or careers, they cannot be just taken off the shelf and put into a real-life setting, they need to adapt to their environment," Canamero said.
