Abstract
In one embodiment, a neuromorphic robot includes a curved outer housing that forms a continuous curved outer surface, a plurality of trackball touch sensors provided on and extending across the continuous curved outer surface in an array, each trackball sensor being configured to detect a direction and velocity a sweeping stroke of a user, and a plurality of lights, one light being collocated with each trackball touch sensor and being configured to illuminate when its collocated trackball touch sensor is stroked by the user, wherein the robot is configured to interpret the sweeping stroke of the user sensed with the plurality of trackball touch sensors and to provide immediate visual feedback to the user at the locations of the touched trackball touch sensors.
