Okay so robots can do a ton of tasks and jobs humans do, but they can't feel emotions like we do, right? Wrong.

Pepper is not a handyman, a computer or a vacuum cleaner. Pepper is an emotional companion.

Using its sensors, it can read emotions and even develop them for itself.

Pepper currently has the ability to speak English, French, Japanese and Spanish.

Japanese creator, SoftBank Robotics Corp, said the emotional robot sold out within a minute.
