Through an innovative combination of voice commands, animatronic movements, and health-tracking features, ElliQ aims to be a bonafide “companion” for older adults. However, its lack of safety features and frequent glitches prevent ElliQ from offering much substantial beyond its novelty.

Made by Intuition Robotics, ElliQ is the first digital companion we’ve encountered that actively engages the user. With no prompting, ElliQ will wish you a good morning, tell you jokes, and ask you questions about your life. Unfortunately, ElliQ cannot contact emergency services, and while her jokes are funny, there’s something undeniably hollow about having a conversation with a robot.
