4. A system for controlling a plurality of robots; the system comprising: a) a server in communication with a plurality of robots; b) processing capability at the server for processing data for delivery to the robots for causing the robots to perform appropriate animation for environmental conditions local to each robot, the animation controlled, in part, by co-processing capability specifically assigned to each of the robots, the co-processing capability independent from server processing capability, wherein the appropriate animation simulates sentience and life-like responses to the environmental data, the sentience including interconnected components that inter-operate to affect the robot with apparent motives, intentions, and creativity, the life-like responses including facial expressions, wherein the interconnected components include: a response module; a theorizer; a data analysis and fusion module; a mood system; and a content module; and c) communication capability for delivering processed data to specific ones of the robots.
