NEC continues to improve their speech synthesis software using their communication robot PaPeRo.

The successor to NEC’s R100 robot, PaPeRo (Partner-type Personal Robot) is a communication robot that moves around on wheels and understands a large vocabulary of words.

Osaka’s Robot Showroom is open to the public from August 4th ~ 9th, allowing visitors to get some hands-on time with NEC’s delightful communication robot PaPeRo.
