There are a few really subtle things that I love about this video. First of all, this robot is supposed to cheer up sick kids in the hospital, but the only face it makes is the same face I made when I was eleven and my brother told me my dad got a vasectomy after I was born because I was a mistake. Just, confused, and a lot of blinking, then sadness and shame.
Secondly, I love that the guy who made the robot goes "I was watching 'I, Robot' and I thought, I should make one." Now I can go ahead and say a phrase I've been dying to say for three years, but never had the opportunity, namely "There's two kinds of people in this world: people who have been inspired by I, Robot, and people who haven't." Thank you very much, sir.
And lastly, if you're going to make a creepy robot to hang around with kids, maybe don't call him "probo." That sounds like he runs on some kind of battery system that can only be charged up by touching kids in their bathing suit areas.
That shit's gonna' give them poor kids nightmare. *Wakes up during middle of the night and see's a dark sihlouette at the end of the beg* "Probo is that you?", "Probo wanna' hug little Billy, TO DEATH!" *Pobos eyes light up like demon fires and little billy tires in vain to scream as Probo smothers him*
With our “Hug the day” campaign, where we will give away 2000 unique cuddles of the huggable robot to children,
we are launching our first joint initiative.

Apart from organizing diverse events, our objective is to develop a huggable robot for hospitalized children. This fits perfectly within our vision of placing technology at the service of children.
