00:00:00
Yeah, I'm not really sure what Apple's
00:00:01
angle on this is.
00:00:02
>> I get what an iPad does. I'm picturing
00:00:04
it on a table connected to an arm so it
00:00:06
can point in different directions. Why
00:00:07
would I want it to be on a table
00:00:09
connected to an arm?
00:00:10
>> Do you remember a year and a half, maybe
00:00:12
two years ago, Apple released that
00:00:14
research paper on animatronic motion?
00:00:16
They built a smart lamp and they did all
00:00:19
of this testing to see what kind of
00:00:21
moves does this robot lamp, it's sort of
00:00:23
like a Pixar lamp.
00:00:24
>> And what kind of moves does it need to
00:00:25
make to make people like it? And they
00:00:26
discovered that in order to make people
00:00:28
like the lamp, actually these nonlinear
00:00:30
sort of extra artsy dancy moves
00:00:34
>> were really So I wonder if this is the
00:00:36
culmination of all of that.
00:00:37
>> The Honor Robot phone did that. It's a I
00:00:39
guess it's a concept phone. It's not
00:00:41
like a retail phone, but it it had this
00:00:43
gimbal with a camera on top of it and it
00:00:45
would also kind of give you these like
00:00:47
little nods and shake its head at you
00:00:48
and it would give you not fully
00:00:50
anthropomorphic looks, but it would kind
00:00:52
of have a face type of thing. It's still
00:00:55
still kind of weird.
