Real Time Implementation of Humanoid Robot Based Intelligent Child Interactive System

Monitoring children left alone at home is an important yet unconquered territory. Maintaining visual contact of children left alone at houses and ensuring that they are safe and engaged remains the top priority of working parents. The developed application uses a humanoid robot-Nao to engage lonely children in an interactive and intellectual manner. The parents are given privilege to monitor the activities of their child using Drop box. The performance of the developed prototype has been tested with children in schools and homes. The results obtained were promising. Thus the developed application intends to provide a suitable companion for children in the age group of 4-8 years in households where all adults work.
