ApriPoko is a robot developed by Toshiba that acts as a universal remote control. When it senses that a remote has been used in its vicinity, it asks the user of the remote what he or she just did. It then records that action and repeats it whenever asked to do so. ApriPoko is not out of the prototype stage of development, but several photos of the robot have been made available by Toshiba. Release dates, pricing information, and information regarding regional availability have not been released either. Toshiba's goal is to incorporate more complex functions into ApriPoko, including scheduling and managing DVR Recordings.
