My Special Aflac Duck is a smart toy to help comfort kids facing cancer. The toy has sensors that react to touch, and RFID tags that help children express their emotions, feel calm during chemotherapy sessions, and feel less alone during the process. Aflac is planning to distribute the toy for free to children diagnosed with cancer across America, with the goal of reaching thousands of patients by the end of 2018. Subscribe:

How about they take the chemicals out of food and water to these children won’t need this toy
What’s this? A meaningful product at CES?
Yehh kids love these one hopefully
Give the kids htc vive they will be entertained for hours a day or maybe samsung gear vr. Im not saying that this duck is bad idea im just saying that vr could get them out of this “reality” for few hours and maybe get time to pass more quikcly. This duck is very good idea tho great job guys you made me smile.
Hopefully this isn’t a marketing ploy on the part of Aflac, and it came from a good place.
There is nothing that makes me feel worse than thinking about kids having cancer.
0:05 i nearly thought that was the robot duck, i was like: omg, that robot look exactly like a real duck!
That is awsome!
Stupid product, just marketed using ‘Cancer’.
I don’t really see how a robot duck would make a kid feel that much better but I guess it doesn’t hurt!
Truly a thoughtful product. I hope they selling it for low prices and we can donate more roboducks to the hospital for the kids who going through tough times.
At first I though the title was “This robot duck erases children through cancer treatments”
Creating technology to help kids and adults to get through cancer is always worth it
This should be part of standard care package
good job people who worked at it
This is just every child would eventually warm up to.
Cool and Innovative.
Wishing well for success.
