This week-long workshop covered a variety of topics, activities and considerations towards setting up the Embrace Angels project; one that features as part of a UK Research and Innovation EPSRC-funded AI Turning Fellowship ‘Somabotics: Creatively Embodying AI’ led by Professor Steve Benford.  Spot, our Boston Dynamics Robotic Dog took star role in the first session which explored where not to touch, appetite to unlock some additional behaviours such as can Spot stand on two limbs, adding inflatables and how does one embrace a dog?
