A huggable robot called LOVOT, was featured in this year's CES Convention held in Las Vegas. It received CES's Innovation Award Product honoree for 2020. Made in Japan, this robot have a soft and warm body that can also be treated as a pet.
LOVOT can be a cute companion and be a source of happiness and emotional support. It can move around a user's home autonomously, and with 10 touch sensors, LOVOT can detect when it is being touched.
It also features a LOVOT app, that can take photos of users, create a diary of interactions, serve as a baby monitor, and patrol the house as a form of security, amongst other things. It is currently being sold in Japan but hopefully would be available in US soon.
