Is now the time for Nao? Nao is a 22-inch humanoid robot (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2STTNYNF4lk) designed by Aldebaran, a French robotics manufacturer, that has been put to work by the psychology department at the University of Notre Dame. Nao’s purpose: to help researchers determine if the aid of a sophisticated robot can enhance the therapy experience for children with autism by bridging the gulf between the world of human social interaction that so often leaves them perplexed, anxious and frustrated and the world of science and technology that they prefer.
