Blogging robots
One thing all bloggers have in common is how do you take a break? Blogging involves publishing mulitple posts daily, 7 days a weeks and not taking any time off for vacation - by fear of losing readers - which is more than fear, it's a reality. So if you're not lucky enough to have guest bloggers lined up to take over when you take off, NEC Corporation has the answer for you: Blogging robots.
NEC Corporation announced development of a new system for automatically creating multi-media blogs. The new system has been developed on NEC's prototype robot PaPeRo, and is initialized when a user begins a conversation with PaPeRo about the events of their day, which the system then records and analyzes. Following this, PaPeRo searches for suitable multi-media contents on the internet, including images, illustrations and music, which are automatically uploaded and edited along with the video recording on the user's blog.
