The SAMi companion robot is a first Iranian social robot that was designed and developed by Arsamrobotics from scratch. Arsamrobotics is a knowledge-based company (Startup) located in Amirkabir University of Technology's Tech. Tower, Tehran. SAMi can communicate with the human in Persian.It Also can navigate freely in the environment. SAMi and his sister ARSo came to earth from Robonus planet to find an energy source. They found that kids playing energy is the most valuable source for surviving their planet. Robokids is their high tech camp with lots of interactive and robotic games. Robokids is the first robotic child care center that used companion robots to communicate with kids.
SAMi can show his feelings with 21 real-time generated animations with strong rendering engine!

SAMi companion robot, version 2.0
Robokids, SAMi with friends !With this novel approach, we can enroll many children all over the country to join our journey of real companion robots. SAMi also equipped with cutting-edge conferencing capabilities, and this makes him an interface between coach and kids. Using a novel approach, coaches can role-play SAMi voice and lipsync engine to teach kids in a better way. This streaming system can transfer SAMi's vision and hear to desire coach.
Robokids is an environment full of excitement and creativity along with robots that come from the planet Robonus. Play robotic games on robotic land and have robotic birthday parties.
