The gadget is designed to be an everyday assistant, reminding users to buy groceries, organizing household schedules, and searching for information online.
The Floki minibot M1 can adapt its behavior to its owner’s personality and form emotional connections, becoming a friend. It can tell bedtime stories, offer friendly advice, or dance to the owner’s favorite music.
The robot will be integrated with the decentralized RICE AI protocol, for which the RICE token will be launched with the support of Floki and TokenFi.
Tokenomics features:
- RICE will be launched through the TokenFi Launchpad, allowing TOKEN stakers to participate in the campaign;
- owners of the Floki minibot M1 will earn tokens by interacting with the bot. In return, information about the gadget’s usage will be used for training;
- Floki and TokenFi users will receive a portion of the tokens as part of an airdrop campaign.
Rice Robotics, the startup behind RICE AI, counts Nvidia, Softbank, Dubai Future Foundation, Mitsui Fudosan, NTT Japan, 7-Eleven, and others among its clients and partners.
Back in April, 21 humanoid robots participated in the Beijing half marathon.
Meanwhile, Elon Musk reported production issues with Optimus due to the US-China trade war.
