Meet Wizkid: part computer, part robot, a Swiss kid who's changing our concept of how people interact with machines.
Wizkid, on display at Museum of Modern Art in New York, looks like a computer with a neck. But there the similarities with the familiar personal computer end. Wizkid isn't static. The screen on the mobile neck moves about like a head, and it's trained to hone in on human faces. Once it sees you, Wizkid focuses on you and follows your movement. Unlike a computer, which requires you to stop what you're doing and adapt your behavior and social interactions in order to use it, Wizkid blends into human space.
