Last month it was revealed that an Apple research team had developed an expressive robot lamp seemingly inspired by Pixar’s Luxo Jr. mascot. Although highly-articulated, Apple’s robot wasn’t mobile, but MiMo is.
Developed by the Japanese robotics company Jizai, MiMo is powered by multiple AI models and features an expressive head that looks like a desk lamp sitting atop six legs allowing the bot to follow people around or interact with them.
