“A few years ago, my life changed. I spent an afternoon with my grandmother and noticed how shaky her hands were and how difficult it was for her to hold a cup of tea. I then watched her try to operate her smartphone – she had trouble with that, too. At that moment, I decided to devote my life to creating temi for her. When I realised all the cool things a personal robot can do, I knew I wanted one for myself. I believe that while smartphones keep us connected at any time‭,‬ temi the personal robot keeps us present anywhere‭.”
