AI is rapidly integrating itself into our home-life; from smart speakers through to smart ovens, and its dramatically changing how we go about our lives. However, the Human Integration Support Robot takes this a step further, as it brings the technology out of the home and into the streets! Designed to provide assistance to lost commuters, this futuristic concept gives us a glimpse into the future of our cities. It isn’t just another big lump of metal either, the bold exterior carries a welcoming persona that makes this device approachable; this has been achieved through the introduction of a human-like hand that protrudes from the central body!
The cylindrical form not only gives it a contemporary aesthetic, but also gives it a 360 degree user-interaction zone, allowing it to be communicated with from every angle!
