The robotic Professor Einstein is full of artificial intelligence, but it’s the facial expressions that make it stand out

Artificial Intelligence is at our fingertips now more than ever. A simple, hey Siri or Alexa, will command a wide range of information. With varying degrees of success, of course. Professor Einstein looks to cash in on that trend with its lovable characterization of the brilliant 20th century academic.

Launched on Kickstarter recently, this action figure meets computer can pull up tons of information just by being asked. It also challenges users to learn about new topics and explains how your questions are answered. Best of all, it does it with a cheery range of expressions on his face thanks to an intricate set of motors built-in to the 14.5-inch Einstein model. Of course, it has a free app that connects over Wi-Fi to deliver personalized info alongside learning activities for kids. Professor Einstein has hit its Kickstarter goal and currently a pledge of $279 will deliver a unit in April.

According to Albert Einstein, the sky’s the limit when imagination and knowledge are paired together! Now you can learn science through the whimsical and knowledgeable eyes of your own personal genius—Professor Einstein. Professor Einstein is the first robot with full facial expressions that can interact dynamically with you and your iPad or Android tablet to teach science and play learning games.
