Ropet 2.0: New robot coming?

[Chris]

Looks like Ropet has big plans for the companion robot space. They seem to be working on another type of robot that resembles a teddy bear with arms crossed with Lovot judging by the designs found on their Facebook and staff pages. Kind of feel they are hinting at the future ahead.

Have to wonder if the robot we are seeing on Kickstarter, Ropet, is a first generation to get feedback while they are working on a more advanced robot behind the scenes.

Decided not to post the images here in case I infringe copyright but you can find the links below.

I you didn't point out that Ropet was a bear, I would have thought it was a seal lol
It's so weird to see a bear without ears.
Even so, I can't wait to get to know more about this project!

This was Ropet’s first product, a robot called Luka.

Concerning that we have to pay monthly liked Japanese robot or not. I love EMO because it comes without monthly payment.

Ropet’s CEO deleted the images of what looked like a Ropet 2.0 from Facebook that I linked to above. Must have been onto something and hit a raw nerve.

Anyone manage to screenshot those images?
