Hey everyone, we've developed Robin- the first "emotionally intelligent" companion to be launched on Product Hunt. Robin helps children undergo medical treatments without feeling stressed or sad. After detecting the child's emotional state, Robin delivers personalized content to make a child happier. Do you want to make Robin happy? Then please share some love for the support.

Exciting product! Does Robin understand and recognize emotions? Can you share details on how it expresses emotions?

@armine_galstyan Thank you for the question. Robin uses AI-based patent-pending technology to build peer-to-peer emotional interactions with children. This technology utilizes reinforcement learning to anchor relevant emotional reactions by analyzing facial expressions and context of conversations. Moreover, this technology enables to provide personalized interaction. In other words, Robin builds follow-up dialogues considering individual features of a particular person.

Hi Mary, thanks for the feedback! Children's reaction was indeed adorable. Due to psychological approach, Robin managed to talk some of them into starting to eat, engaged in funny conversations. As an appreciation Robin got paintings as gifts))

Robin is sich a neseccity that I think tomorrow we'll be surprised to look back at the world the way it was without her. She is one of the first of the many steps to improved pediatric care, an area where unfortunately there is still so much to be done.

Hey guys, this is an awesome product. Great job! I have a question though: What is the target age of children Robin most efficiently interacts with?
Karén Khachikyan
Maker
@nune_zadoyan Thank you Nuné for the question. According to our findings from the pilots, Robin most efficiently interacts with children of 4-12 years age group.

@karkhachikyan This reminds me of the help that emotional support animals provide to their owners with PTSD and other mental issues. Keep up the great work!
