Disney makes robotic arm resembling own film's character

Disney Research has developed a soft robotic arm that resembles the character 'Baymax' from Disney's sci-fi action film 'Big Hero 6'. The prototype has pressure sensors within its inflatable fingers so that the robotic hand can adjust its grip. "Where physical human-robot interaction is expected, robots should be compliant and reactive to avoid human injury and hardware damage," noted researchers.
