Decoding the robotic design<\/p>\n
The\u00a0LG CLOiD humanoid<\/a>\u00a0robot has two articulated arms, each with seven degrees of freedom, powered by motors. They provide versatile, human-like natural motion.<\/p>\n Both hands have five actuated fingers<\/a> providing advanced dexterity. With these actuators, the CLOiD robot can perform delicate and precise tasks with fine motor control.<\/p>\n At the heart of LG CLOiD is a powerful chipset embedded in its head, effectively serving as the robot\u2019s \u201cbrain.\u201d It is equipped with a display, speaker, camera, and a suite of sensors that enable expressive interaction, natural voice communication, and intelligent navigation around the home.<\/p>\n Powered by LG\u2019s Affectionate Intelligence technology, CLOiD can understand its surroundings, engage with users in a more human-like manner, and continually improve its behavior through repeated use, ultimately delivering more personalized assistance in everyday household tasks.<\/p>\n Delving deep into Affectionate Intelligence<\/p>\n The company\u2019s Affectionate Intelligence<\/a> represents the company\u2019s vision for AI that goes beyond simple automation. It places human emotions, habits, and comfort at the center of technology.<\/p>\n Beyond performing commands, the system is designed to sense users\u2019 moods, preferences, and daily routines through real-time data from LG products such as TVs, appliances, and smart devices.<\/p>\n By understanding context and behavior, it proactively delivers comfort, convenience, and delightful experiences. The experiences range from adjusting lighting and climate to recommending entertainment or offering timely reminders.<\/p>\n This human-centric approach emphasizes intelligence that learns, adapts, and connects with users in meaningful ways. Affectionate Intelligence focuses on four core pillars: sensing and understanding, caring and personalizing, proactive assistance, and human-centered design.<\/p>\n Together, these enable devices to anticipate needs before users even ask, tailor experiences to individual lifestyles, and provide support in ways that feel considerate rather than mechanical.<\/p>\n Growth engine for the future<\/p>\n
