"The robot, called LG CLOiD, will make its debut at CES next month, featuring two articulated arms and five individually actuated fingers on each hand. Though we only have a description and two images showing LG CLOiD's five-fingered hands, it already seems a lot different from the two-wheeled home companion LG revealed last year, which came with a handle attached to its head rather than two arms."
"LG says CLOiD's motor-equipped arms operate with seven degrees of freedom, indicating a more human-like range of motion and flexibility. Along with a chipset embedded inside LG CLOiD's "head," the robot comes with a display, speaker, camera, and sensors built for voice interaction, "expressive communication," and navigation. It also features LG's "Affectionate Intelligence" technology, which the company previously described as AI-powered tech designed to "better understand and empathize with customers.""
LG CLOiD is a household robot slated to debut at CES next month with two articulated arms and five individually actuated fingers per hand. The motor-equipped arms offer seven degrees of freedom for a more human-like range of motion and flexibility. The robot includes a chipset in its head, plus a display, speaker, camera, and sensors for voice interaction, expressive communication, and navigation. CLOiD differs from LG's prior two-wheeled companion by replacing a handle-equipped head with articulated arms. The robot also incorporates Affectionate Intelligence, an AI system aimed at better understanding and empathizing with customers.
