PLAY stimulates children sensory-motor, psychological behavioural and cognitive abilities and supports their first steps into the development of social relationships and personal identity.The emergence of interactive and digital technologies and the actual development of ROBOTICS, with its experimental approach in mixing mechanical and electronic features, represent a strong potential for the design of innovative scenarios based on the integration of robotics into everyday life activities commercial jumping castles for sale melbourne, electronically enhanced tools and children EXPERIENCES.In the threshold territory between PLAY and ROBOTICS we are envisioning a world populated by a new generation of highly EMOTIONAL, SENSORIAL, SENSIBLE, AFFECTIVE, ANIMATED, FAMILIAR and INTERACTIVE ROBOTIC OBJECTS, TOYS AND ARTEFACTS.http://projects.domusacademy.net/robotoys
