At Springwood library in the Blue Mountains, children enjoyed a reading event featuring MetaCats—therapeutic robotic pets designed to comfort users. These lifelike cats, equipped with sensors and interactive features like an artificial heartbeat and voice responsiveness, delight the kids and provide emotional support, particularly benefiting those with anxiety or dementia. The initiative by the Blue Mountains city council aims to enhance community well-being through technology, with children expressing joy and comfort while interacting with these innovative companions.
The MetaCats are therapeutic robotic pets designed to provide comfort and reduce stress, especially for children or individuals dealing with anxiety or dementia.
MetaCats feature an artificial heartbeat and sensors that respond to touch and voice, providing an interactive experience that can help alleviate loneliness.
