Comments on PaPeRo Robot Childcare In Japan
Phil Dick's robot nanny could beat up this childcare robot - but PaPeRo actually exists and is working with children today. (Read the complete story)

"That is so cool!!!!!! How do they do that? I wonder what it would be like to have that."

""The robot has a top speed of 20 centimeters per second, which designers (who apparently don't have toddlers themselves) believe is sufficient to keep up with children." - haha so true"

"Just wait 'till you get to the next part, where they run off, you trot after them, then you run, then you realize that they will outdistance you."
