Kuri
The Kuri robot was developed by Mayfield Robotics (a startup of Bosch). Kuri, a 20-inch-high robot, promises to be a companion that performs more of the role of a pet. Kuri is very similar to the Buddy Robot and the Zenbo robot with a big difference, this robot has no screen.
Specifications Kuri
The robot has a 1080p camera behind its eyes that can be used to inspect the room and to recognise individual people. The robot also works as a blue tooth speaker to play or read audio.

An example of such an instruction is; as soon as the sun goes down you can switch on (all) HUE lamps.
