Newly equipped with a function that allows care devices to be connected wirelessly. By preventing forgetting to take measurements and reducing the hassle of recording, it supports the habit of daily health management. In addition, by using the “BOCCO emo LTE rental model” equipped with LTE communication function, measurement results can be automatically recorded even in homes without an internet environment. At this exhibition, you will be able to experience the entire process from notification of measurement time to recording of measurement results by BOCCO emo through an actual demonstration that links “BOCCO emo” with healthcare equipment. 2.

“Programming Emo-chan,” it is now possible to control the movements and speech of “BOCCO emo” using a computer, tablet, etc. By detecting input events such as voice commands, you can change the direction of BOCCO emo’s head, change the color of its cheeks, or make it speak your favorite words. It is also possible to learn programming by combining “Kokoro Kit”, “Kokoro Kit ”, and “BOCCO emo” from Yukai Engineering’s educational series “kurikit”. In this
exhibition, we will introduce an actual demo of “BOCCO emo” running and speaking from a visual programming environment on a tablet. 3. Example of development of corporate solutions using API of “BOCCO emo” (reference exhibit) (1) Lifestyle information distribution for telecommunications carriers in collaboration with STB (Panasonic Connect Co., Ltd.) Panasonic Connect Co., Ltd. will introduce an example of linking a cable TV STB (set-top box) and “BOCCO emo” using API. We have developed a system that combines the display on the TV screen and the utterances of “BOCCO emo” to deliver information about your daily life (disaster prevention information, local event information, etc.). (2) Recreational content for nursing care providers (Himika Co., Ltd.) Himika Co., Ltd. will introduce a case study in which “BOCCO emo” is linked with tablet-based recreational content (brain training, sightseeing spot introductions, etc.) developed for nursing care providers using an API. We have developed a system that allows wheelchair users and others to easily enjoy recreational content while operating a tablet on their lap and interacting with BOCCO emo.
