Bond The Robot Was Designed to Replicate Your Handwriting

Bond, the robot (and not the movie character), was created in order to reinvent the concept of traditional mail, ink & paper and the creative process of letter-writing. It is a commonly known fact that traditional means of communication have lost adepts in front of the virtual modalities of message sending and receiving. While texting is so common that got to replace even face-to-face conversations, the idea of writing a letter instead of sending an e-mail is obsolete. Bond is now an alternative, a problem solver, which truly bonds traditionalists with modernists: Bond writes all the messages you wish to send, using as pattern your own handwriting.

The disadvantages of sending an e-mail or a text instead of writing a letter are numerous. Firstly, a part of the message and its significance can be lost, considering that the receiver gets a technical variant of your own thoughts and words. Of course, reading into someone’s handwriting may seem an impossible or useless process, but in the case of close relationships, even that tiny detail may give the reader hints upon the actual state of the writer. Secondly, a letter is a physical entity, made of ink and paper, which can be kept as a memory for years and even centuries, whereas texts get deleted, sooner or later.

All of the benefits of the traditional letter are now forwarded by Bond and mixed with all the advantages of nowadays technology. Bond introduces itself as ‘’Technology for thoughtful companies.’’ And the robot Bond is indeed smart, as it combines MakerBot 3-D printers and Montblanc pens. In this manner, the possibilities of sending or receiving robot handwritten pieces became limitless. According to the official Bond site, those who wish to use their own handwriting style in their letters must undergo a quite easy process in order to get the job done. Firstly, one must print an intake form. Secondly, one must fill the form out, scan it and send back the final variant. Last but not least, the Bond company will forward you a message once their smart robots are trained into using your very own and personal handwriting.

If you believe your handwriting is absolutely horrible, but you still want to be inventive and ingenious with your message sending, you may choose one of the available handwritings. The range of Bond’s handwriting styles is quite vast, offering patterns for every occasion. What is more, the Bond team constantly adds new handwriting styles, which widens even more the possibilities. If you contact Bond, you have the opportunity ‘’to write’’ like genius Nikola Tesla even in 2015.
