iCub enjoys the view of San Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge during a break from his demos at the 2011 International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems.
Now a day, Researchers build Robot babies to investigate human cognition, language acquisition, and motor development. Some Japanese researchers even say robot babies could help introduce young people to the wonders of parenthood and boost birth rates.
