This mechanical-baby thingy is the latest breakthrough in robotics designed to “help researchers study how infants develop motor skills during the first year of life.” Named Diego-San, this creature is a prototype of a 1-year-old child developed by University of California researchers and a Japanese (of course) robotics firm.
It weighs 66 pounds and is 4’3” tall (like most 1-year-old babies), and does things like pick up bottles and sits and stands. Yeah, but can it juggle? The baby robot also has a HUGE HEAD that can make 20 different facial expressions, but clearly it prefers to express the emotion called “disgruntled.”
