Hobbs 3, now sold by Noetix Robotics as Xiao Nuo, is a lifelike head-and-torso companion robot for reception, consultation, live streaming, education and research into human-robot interaction. Its realistic head has platinum-silicone skin on a magnetically attached, removable face and 32 active and 8 passive degrees of freedom driven by cables and linkages, for detailed expressions and neck movement. Two RGB cameras sit in the eyes and a touchscreen with a third camera in the chest, alongside a microphone array and stereo speakers. The half-body unit measures 400 x 300 x 600 mm, weighs 10.5 kg and runs Android and Ubuntu, with an SDK that exposes joint, face and lip-sync control.
