A human size interacting robot called RoboBeggar is a dedicated learning appliance capable of bankcard-based swift money transfers, providing information on relevant issues, giving advice on how to contribute to help needy people. RoboBeggar helps people to understand where and why resources are needed. Thanks to a bankcard reader it gives the facility to donate money in a quick and efficient way. Both charity organisations as well as donors benefit from this interdisciplinary project with flavours of education, robotics, cognitive science and computer science.
