    The Newton can walk, talk, discuss things, play with you, teach you things, and give you soothing music whenever and wherever you want, just like an entertaining robot. Since this robot is designed to be a personal robot, it can follow commands and is capable of sending out certain sound effects. It is also equipped with light and smoke sensors capable of warning you of any fire and smoke.
