The ApriPoko is a robot which can sense infra-red beams and each time one passes by it, the robot will ask what just happened. When you provide this information, you train the robot which stores the command and infra-red signal details to use at a later date.
The end result is a robot which stores all of the remote control information in it’s memory which can then be accessed via voice command. If you want the TV turning up you just tell it to do that and it will. The robot measures 21 x 27 cemtimeters and weighs 2.3 kilos.
The ApriPoko is currently a prototype and Toshiba who have created it, hope to have a fully working product available soon.
