We saw the many different robots CMU is working on- one which will be going to the moon another which is an underwater robot! We then were introduced to Keepon (which in Japanse means doing something) and how it got its' start in studying human social development. Keepon is the winner of this year’s (2010) Smiley Award. The award was established three years ago by Scott Fahlman, creator of the emoticon :-) They had a big celebration on Friday night and Justine saved the Keepon part of the cake for the girls on the tour to eat!
