This little girl loves Kiro. Why? Because he’s probably the raddest robot teacher she’s ever seen. Developed by Korea’s Robot Research Institute, the bot recently wrapped up a 3 week trial period in a kindergarten classroom, where he apparently spent most of his time screening educational videos on his abdomen, playing interactive games, and keeping his students in rapt attention. When he wasn’t busy shelling out Ritalin to his underlings, Kiro also served as a guide on the Dong-a college Museum, in Busan. After programming the droid with enough knowledge to make him sound smart, engineers set him loose in the art gallery, where he would offer visitors with background information in hushed, docent-dulcet tones. He loves kids. He loves art. He’s always smiling. He’s the kinda bot which you can bring home to Dad. Scope him out for yourself inside the video, after the break.
