There are all kinds of apps that will remind you to do things, which is
great, if you remember to ask them to remind you to do things. At IEEE
International Conference on Robotics and Automation yesterday, researchers
from Cornell and Stanford presented a project called Watch-Bot, which can
independently learn your household activity patterns to provide you with
helpful reminders. If you leave the milk out, or forget to turn a monitor
off, or leave food in the microwave, the robot will figure out on its own
that you forgot to do something and then gently remind you.
