Scientists from the North Caucasus Federal University are working on a device that will help children with disabilities (CWD), speech and motor impairments. The goal of the developers is to help such children socialize and stimulate the development of speech in children with special needs. The robotic toy will communicate with them using synthesized speech and respond to commands.
There are practically no similar developments on the Russian market. This means that we will be able to solve not only the issue of developing children with disabilities through artificial intelligence, but also increase the potential of the domestic market in this segment.
According to the developers' idea, the child will be able to interact with the device using a special communication panel. It looks like a remote control with keys. The robot will respond to their pressing, as well as respond to voice commands. In the future, they want to add something like a baby monitor to the device. With its help, parents will be able to communicate with their children remotely and conduct video recording. The robot will stimulate children to develop speech.
The device is created in the format of a hexapod — a six-legged robot. This will allow it to stand stably on various surfaces and be mobile. Scientists are working on finalizing the software for the "octopus". The mechanical basis of the robot is also under development.
