A team of engineers at App<\/a>le Computer has developed an expressive table lamp that interacts with a user rather than simply carrying out instructions. The group has posted a paper<\/a> on the arXiv<\/i> preprint server describing the factors that went into the development of the lamp and its current features. They have also posted several videos showing the robot lamp in action.<\/p>\n

Many people have seen the movie called Luxo Jr., a short, animated film made by Pixar back in 1986. Luxo Jr. made an impression via its human-like behavior. It shrank back when surprised, for example, or leaned forward at times as though getting a better look at something, which made the viewer forget it had no eyes. It was just a desk lamp.<\/p>\n

In this new effort, the team at Apple has resurrected the idea behind Luxo Jr. by creating a lamp that behaves very much the same. It can see via camera, hear via microphone, speak via speaker and move courtesy of tiny motors.<\/p>\n
