In 〈tailspace〉, Kim proposes that SPOT interacts through various friendly motions rather than being dictated by sensations and mechanical movement. In particular, SPOT expands communication and interaction by working with the tail of SPOT on interfaces, such as lines connected by several motors that can move by themselves. Audiences can imagine an interesting future in which humans and robots interact through SPOT wearing and being equipped with other applications.
