The little robot that could...Maybe

Most of the world' s robot s are about as charismatic as a coffeemaker. Not so Cynthia Breazeal's creations. There's Huggable, a robot teddy bear, and Kismet, a babbler with big eyes, red lips, and pointy ears. Nexi is baby-faced and blue-eyed, and Leonardo has been described variously as a squirrel, a furry alien, and a giant Furby.
