  • Robot pets have been a sci-fi staple for decades, and in recent years we’ve seen a glut of them finally hit the market.
  • To pull all this off, Loona is kitted out with a suite of tech, including microphones for voice commands, and cameras for recognizing faces and people, navigating around objects, tracking movement, and avoiding falling off edges.
  • Future updates will apparently allow users to edit Loona’s actions, expressions and interactions, as well as connect the robot to Home Assistant to control other devices.
