PETER O'Meter
An Augmented Reality SEL Children's Book
PETER O’Meter isn’t an ordinary robot
Not even close. PETER, which stands for programmable empathetic touch-sensitive emotional robot, was recently upgraded with an AEI (artificial emotional intelligence) panel to make him more human-like.
PETER learns to express six emotions (viewed with augmented reality) through his face, color, and actions when his springs are wound up too tight, his lid is about to flip, or his circuits crossed.
If only he can figure out which button to push as he navigates his way through an typical day at Tinkertron Elementary School.
