3D Printed Robot “Peeqo” communicates Using GIFs

Peeqo is a 3D printed small robot, developed by New-York-based researcher Abhishek Singh.  The main feature of Peeqo is that it communicates using GIFs only.
Abhishek Singh explains his 3D printed cute robot Peeqo. He describes it as a Disney character and the love child of Amazon Echo. He made this robot as an alternative to the current social robots, which according to him are unable to express any emotion. Hence, Singh used GIFs features, which are popular to convey specific emotions, to create this 3D printed robot. This GIF-talking robot is the result of a lengthy and difficult development process. Singh has explained the development process in an Imgur post.
