"Cocomo is an autonomous robot pet that can follow you around the house and respond to voice and touch. It has a fuzzy, egg-shaped body, but the version we saw at CES was wearing an orange suit with ears that made it look a bit like a teddy bear.

"Cocoo's exterior is meant to stay close to human body temperature at 98.6 degrees fahrenheit and the company says it will rise up to 102 degrees in "high contact" situations like hugging it.

Cocomo is an autonomous robot pet that follows users around the house and responds to voice and touch. Cocomo features a fuzzy, egg-shaped body and demonstrated an orange suit with ears, moving on a wheeled base while offering tiny legs for carrying. Cocomo's exterior is meant to stay near human body temperature at 98.6°F and can rise to 102°F in high-contact situations like hugging. Cocomo communicates with hums and sounds rather than words and is designed to bond over time through spontaneous gestures, imitation, and gentle initiation. A waitlist exists for updates ahead of a crowdfunding campaign. Inu is a smaller desktop companion intended to keep users company while they work, interacting through audio and movement with a tail that wiggles in response to voice and touch.
