My Special Aflac Duck – a comforting soft robot takes the role of caregiver for people fighting cancer. It’s part toy, part robot and part medical device. It has sensors that react to touch, a microphone and light sensor that adapt to different environments and adjust the duck’s behavior. When you hold the duck, it is incredibly life-like with natural movements.
