Sophia the robot visits Timberlane Science Fair

Sophia, the world's most advanced human-like robot participated in the Timberlane Middle School science fair and Family Fun Night to promote STEM education last Saturday. It was Sophia's first time attending a school science fair as a guest and her creator, Hanson Robotics, expressed gratitude to Hopewell Valley for the kind invitation and for showing innovative thinking by including Sophia in this year's activities. Sophia was created by combining innovations in science, engineering, and artistry. She is a framework for robotics and artificial intelligence ("AI") and research, and an agent for exploring the human-to-robot experience in service and entertainment applications. Sophia has also become a much sought-after media personality, helping to advocate for AI research and the role of robotics and AI in our lives.
