Robots in Daycare

Nishi-Nippon Railroad Co., a transportation company in southern Japan, announced that it will introduce the security robot ROBORIOR into the daycare center that it operates. ROBORIOR is made by tmsuk, and will enable the parents to keep their eyes on their children in daycare using their cell phones. How the children interact with the robot would be interesting to see. May be a good research topic for an expert in human-robot interaction.
