Touch sensitive robot with touch sensor belt

A touch sensitive robot comprising:

• a body comprising an interactive section configured for a user to interact with the touch sensitive robot;
• a touch sensor comprising:
• a pair of electrically conductive belts provided around at least part of the body, the belts parallel to but spaced apart from each other, an inner one of the belts adjacent to the body and an outer one of the belts separated from the body by the inner belt;
• a power source applying a voltage to two distal ends of one of the belts;
• and
• a voltage sensor electrically interconnecting the belts;
• the outer belt being capable of elastically deforming when touched by a user to contact the inner belt, and the voltage sensor configured to measure a change in the voltage caused by the contact and thereby identify a location of the touch;
• a driver;
• and
• a controller configured for controlling the driver to drive the body to move based upon the measured change in voltage so that the interactive section changes position to a location of the touch of the user.
