[ permanent dead link] Anki (stylized as " anki") was an American robotics and artificial intelligence startup [2] that put robotics technology in products for children. Anki programmed physical objects to be intelligent and adaptable in the physical world, [3] [4] and aimed to solve the problems of positioning, reasoning, and execution in artificial intelligence and robotics. Yet again, the investment was used to fuel another product launch. This time, Anki introduced the Cozmo, a Wall-E-like robot that is powered by AI technology. As such, it can react to a human’s emotions and even be used to play games. The Cozmo was ultimately launched in October 2016. Names are learned by scanning facial features and recording specific dimensions. There are no photographs stored. The entered name will be remembered based on the scanned numerical features.

The App

There is a powerful software development kit (SDK) installed. This software allows code experts to create millions of unique experiences. However, can these financial debacles be the sole reason, or is there something inherent within the robotics industry that is to blame? With the ability to exude a human-like expressiveness, Cozmo is a step towards more elaborate robots. Anki has taken robotics a step beyond the autonomous little race cars that preceded this unique product. The age of artificial intelligence is booming, and this cute robot toy may be the door to the future.

Furthermore, the cars had Bluetooth connectivity to communicate with the smartphone (which acted as the remote control, built-in microprocessors, LED lights, and other features.There is immediate recognition of pets. Like people, the toy loves cats and dogs and immediately can differentiate between the two. Furthermore, some have pointed towards a very complex and unsustainable manufacturing process, which meant that production wasn’t easy to scale and likely very expensive. Couple that with the need to develop highly sophisticated software and you likely have millions of dollars in R&D expenses.
