Teachable and Trainable Robot The robot should have empty memory and uncontrollable actuators like a newborn baby. Then the trainer (may be the robot owner) can teach the robot just as he/she like. The robot will recognize the lessons and record them in his memory. Basically at the the first age stage, the robot can learn movement, motion, and voice recognition. The second age stage will improve to color recognition, size recognition, command recognition etc,. This type of robot doesn't need pre-programmed command and action sets but only learning firmware. After completing aging stages, the robot must act like a human of his age.
