Emotix

At a time when technology is increasingly invading Indian households leading to usage addiction on mediums like social media, browsing which is not meant for children, 3 IIT Mumbai graduates - Sneh Rajkumar Vaswani, Chintan Subhash Raikar and Prashant Iyengar founded Emotix to address the social needs of young parents and children. With a team of engineers, mathematicians, artists, neuro-psychologists they created Miko - an artificial intelligence based companion robot for children. It is India's first companion robot capable of engaging, educating and entertaining children above 5 years. Miko helps them learn, play and develop skills. As machines are created on human patterns, the distinction between physical, digital and biological will get blurred, resulting in breakthroughs that will solve grave consumer problems. Emotix is at the driver's seat to steer this next age of social robotics.
