At this year's Consumer Electronics Show, Groove X revealed that its lovable robot companion Lovot has graduated from being a prototype to a purchasable retail model, according to TechCrunch.

For a few years now, the prototype version of Groove X's cute and cuddly companion robot, Lovot, has been stealing the hearts of CES visitors from around the world. While interested customers have been able to make down payments to reserve a Lovot of their own, it took years for the retail version to go on sale even in the company's home country of Japan – at least until about a month ago. And now the device is back on display in Las Vegas, at CES 2020.
