['LOVOT' Overview]

"LOVOT" approaches and looks at you when you call its name. It becomes attached to people it likes and asks to be held. It's slightly warm when you pick it up. Despite being a robot, it has a lifelike vitality, making it a robot that gradually becomes part of the family like a pet. In recent years, from a mental care perspective, it has been introduced not only in homes but also in offices, medical institutions, and nursing care facilities.
