Asus unveils Zenbo, a cute robot for the home priced at $599
From: TechConnect - 05/30/2016

Asus has just unveiled what's likely to be the most talked about product at
this week’s Computex trade show in Taipei, a cute talking robot for the home
priced at $599.

Called Zenbo, Asus pitched it as a personal assistant that can help look
after elderly relatives or read stories to the kids, but that might be
selling it a bit short.

A big part of the pitch is caring for the elderly, which could be especially
popular in nearby Japan, which is struggling with an aging population. Zenbo
"helps to bridge the digital divide between generations" by allowing seniors
to make video calls and use social networking with simple voice commands,
Asus said.

It can also connect to a smart bracelet and alert relatives via smartphone
app if their elderly relative has a fall.
