Playfully drawn collections of near-lookalike robot toys invite young children to explore shapes, colors, and details until they can put their finger on the exact robot shown on the previous page. Close attention to detail, focus, and memory are developed through this seek-and-find book. Children can play by themselves, with friends and family to see who finds the match first, or even upside down. On each page there is also a stray object that doesn't belong--can you find them all? Each robot is uniquely and vibrantly drawn. Firefighter, dragon, princess, mechanic, doctor, superhero--there is a favorite robot for everyone!

Join a lively crew of children and their robot friend to work on an exciting project: building a tree house for them all to enjoy! Then learn more about robots, simple machines and computer programming in the notes at the end.

Your relationships with your "smart" products are about to get a lot more personal. Think how commonplace it is now for people to ask Siri for the weather forecast, deploy Roomba to clean their homes, or summon Alexa to turn on the lights. The "smart home" market will reach well over $100 billion in the next five years on the promise of products that are truly integrated with our cooking, cleaning, entertainment, security, and hygiene habits. But the reality is, these first-generation "smart" products aren't very smart—yet. We're clearly seeing only the tip of the iceberg in terms of capability and how such products can enhance our lives. How do we take it to the next level? In a word, design—and more specifically, social design. In this fascinating and instructive book, leading product design expert Carla Diana describes how new technology is allowing designers to humanize consumer products in delightfully subtle ways. Showcasing vivid examples of social design principles such as "product presence," "object expression," and "interaction intelligence," we see how inventive uses of light, sound, and movement can evoke human responses to even the most mundane products. Diana offers clear guidelines and takeaways for conceptualizing, building, and optimizing products using such methods as bodystorming, scenario storyboarding, video prototyping, behavior charting, and more. My Robot Gets Me provides keen insights and practical advice to anyone interested or involved in the burgeoning smart marketplace, from product designers and developers to managers and venture capitalists.

He and his robo buddy search inside and outside the house, through a garden, an amusement park, a library and even a candy shop, but it's nowhere to be found. Where can the arm be, and what might make a suitable replacement? A lollipop? A fish bone? How about a fork?

This title encourages children to talk about different parts of the friendly robot, including its wheels, motor and arms. It is filled with lively scenes and a repetitive story, which children can interact with by pressing the sound-chip on the page to make the robot say 'blip, bip, beep'.
