Oka unveils $849 Mori AI companion robot shaped like a mushroom lamp

Oka announced the Mori, a 10-inch AI-powered device that pops out of a mushroom-shaped shell to react to voice and movement using built-in cameras and sensors, speaking in a babble language similar to a Furby. The device processes audio and images locally and discards them, though it retains facial recognition data to recognize familiar people, and it can retreat into its shell to function as a glowing lamp playing ambient sounds.

Startup OKA unveils Mori, a $299 robot lamp shaped like a mushroom

Cambridge- and Shenzhen-based startup OKA, led by CEO Hua Wang, has introduced Mori, a roughly 12-inch home robot lamp designed to look like a mushroom. The device uses a built-in camera and microphone to track movement and sound, retracting its animated eyes and nose-camera into its body to play ambient nature soundscapes and guide breathing exercises. OKA says Mori is the first of five planned 'Artifacts' meant to explore human relationships with technology and nature.
