Meow: A Morning Companion Robot

Authors Info & Claims
Published:01 April 2020Publication History

ABSTRACT

Our robot is a very friendly, helpful and considerate morning-companion-clock, but also a very persuasive one! It uses multiple methods to effectively wake you up (light, sounds and movements), then it guides you through a simple stretching routine, accompanied by fresh aroma and soft music to help you make a perfect start of the day. Contrary to other alarm clocks, which wake you up by being annoying, the morning companion is so nice and pleasant, that you can form a bond with it and want to wake up to start the day in its company.
