The scientist from a research institute of intelligent robots finds the experience so boring that hed rather driveeven though he lives close to his lab and knows that walking us healthy. I enjoy walking with someone, like with my wife, with my daughter, Kanda said. But they are not always available.So Kanda, who specializes in human-like bots, developed a robotic walking partner that could make small talk based on its surroundings, which, he hopes, might motivate people to get out and exercise more. The bot rests on a persons shoulder like a boxy parrot. It weighs about a pound and a half and sits roughly 8.5 inches high, 3.5inches wide, and 10 inches long. A microphone, speaker, and internal camera allow it to communicate. Its even equipped with a smile.Kanda and his team collected video form five different locations, including a garden and a shopping mall, and created a dataset of small talk topics related to each location. Then they programmed the robot to associate visual cues with specific topics. A special speech software provided the robot with a voice. Near a group of parked cars, for example, it might say, In a big parking lot, sometimes I forget where I parked.They tested the robot on 15 volunteers, 10 males and 5 females, who were paid and averaged about 26 years old. Have you ever blown a puff of dandelion（蒲公英）seeds into the air? The robot asked a participant, who smiled and responded, Yes, I often did that when I was a child. Although several participants noted the robots weight, Kanda was surprised that no one considered the experience as strange or funny. I guess people enjoy new technologies, he said
