Lonely Home Bench
Created by Tobi Schneidler and maoworks, it's at the Victoria & Albert Museum in London until August 29th as part of the "Touch Me" exhibition.
It's alive: part domestic furniture and part robotic pet.
You sit on it and it might try to throw you off.
You toss a magazine on it and it dumps it on the floor.
You stroke it and it wiggles.
Internal sensors and actuators give it a personality.
Kind of like how you operate, now that I think about it.
