Pet robots refer to robots in the form of animals that are used for therapy or considered a proxy for a real pet. While robotic pets have existed in Japan for several decades, a 2024 survey found that the majority of respondents had no interest in using such devices. Only around 19 percent of respondents showed interest in trying out robotic pets.
