In an age of exponential change, how do we raise our children, especially if they have learning disabilities or are socially isolated? How do we give them the emotional, social, and cognitive skills they need to navigate a complex, ever-changing world? The Moxie robot companion is designed to support social, emotional, and cognitive development in children between the ages of 5 and 10 through play-based learning and lessons on turn-taking and eye contact. To seamlessly integrate its form with a child’s behavior, Moxie uses machine-learning technology that continuously adapts to and learns from the human user.
