Feds Spending $10 Million to Build Robot Companions for Children

The government has spent $2.15 million so far for the five-year project, which is being led by Yale University... “Robots Helping Kids,” will ultimately “deploy” robots into homes and schools to teach English as a second language, and encourage kids to exercise.
