Humans share a special bond with pets, if you’ve had one, you know what I mean. Their mere presence is mood enhancing; expressive eyes are depression-and-anxiety-busting; and their love is unconditionally satisfying to the lonely. In return they require food, empathy, and if I can stress enough, Love and Time! Some of us can commit to it, but the elderly, the ailing, and the working can find it difficult to raise pets. This is where robotics has stepped in. Cute and helpful pet robots have appeared like fruits of love for a few years; CES 2025 saw some more advanced bot pets wag their tails. We won’t hold you up too much and take you straight to the most amazing robot pets that appeared at the recently concluded event in Las Vegas.
Puppy That Heals Hearts: Tombot’s Jennie
Hyper-realistic robot Labrador puppy called Jennie is a brainchild of Tombot. It is designed to offer emotional support to seniors and dementia patients (who may be unable to recognize or care for their real pets). With touch sensors that respond to cuddles and AI-powered voice activation mimicking a 12-week-old pup, Jennie provides comfort and companionship. Rechargeable and customizable, it aims to bring warmth to homes, hospitals, and care facilities.
Clip-on Furry Mirumi Robot
Yukai Engineering’s Mirumi, a clip-on furry robot, captured hearts at CES this year. Designed to cling to bag handles, it resembles a little koala or sloth. Mirumi can interact with its surroundings by nodding, rotating its head, and gazing at passersby.
