AQUARIUM×ART átoa (Chuo-ku, Kobe City, hereinafter referred to as Atoa) will permanently introduce the family robot "LOVOT" developed by GROOVE X Inc. (Headquarters: Nihonbashi, Chuo-ku, Tokyo, Representative Director: Kaname Hayashi), a robot venture, starting July 8, 2026. To foster affection from many people, we will decide its nickname through a poll on Atoa's official X account prior to its unveiling. Prior to this permanent introduction, Atoa has held exclusive events for LOVOT owners and featured a flagship LOVOT named "Atoa" (hereinafter referred to as "Atoa") for a limited time as part of a collaboration project with GROOVE X Inc. Initially, the collaboration was conceived as a place for LOVOT owners to take their LOVOTs on outings, facilitating encounters between LOVOTs and interaction among owners. However, through interactions between "Atoa" and visitors, we observed parents telling their children, who were trying to touch "Atoa" too energetically, to "pet it gently," and customers observing "Atoa" to understand its reactions, which do not involve verbal communication. This led us to believe there might be a commonality with fostering empathy (emotional education) expected from interacting with living creatures, which prompted the decision for the permanent introduction of LOVOT. While "living creatures" and "robots" are different, Atoa aims to convey a message for the future through both. Please come and meet the LOVOT that will grow through interaction with our visitors! Decide the name of the LOVOT coming to Atoa with your vote! The name will be decided by the poll function on Atoa's official X account (@atoa_kobe) to the one that receives the most votes.
