Answer:
The mobile base greatly benefits Sophia as a social robot because it creates a human-like silhouette that is unobtrusive and does not distract from Sophia's social interactions with humans. Compared to bipedal walking, her mobile base is simpler, more reliable, and uses less energy.

Mobile robotics is a subfield of robotics focusing on locomotion, or robots that are not fixed to a single location. This can include home robots or delivery and transportation robots that move supplies through a work environment. The most common forms of robot locomotion include walking, rolling, and continuous tracks.
Walking is ideal for rough terrain and stairs and causes less erosion compared to rolling robots. Legged robots are most commonly either quadrupeds, hexapods (designed after the structure of insects such as cockroaches), or bipeds, which have two legs and mimic the human form. Hexapods are great for transportation because they can still function if one leg breaks down, while bipedal movement is common for social humanoid robots because it is a form that is more comfortable to humans. Unfortunately, designing robots for bipedal walking is still very challenging and expensive. The main obstacle is maintaining balance with motors that are not yet as strong as human muscles, especially on uneven surfaces or in the presence of obstacles.
Rolling locomotion, however, has greater stability and energy efficiency. Rolling wheels lose very little energy, while a walking robot loses energy each time the foot impacts the ground. Rolling robots are also stable even when powered off, while a biped would need to move to a resting position before powering off. Rolling systems are also easier to implement because there are hardware and software solutions already available.
Sophia the Robot of Hanson Robotics is a social robot designed to form bonds with humans and gradually learn about the world through exploration and social interaction. Sophia has two forms of locomotion available to her: her walking legs and her rolling base. While we have discussed her legs in a previous post, this post will focus on her mobile base, which utilizes rolling locomotion. We have found this new feature has enabled Sophia to achieve greater speeds, navigate her world more smoothly and safely, and participate more fully in human activities.
Conceptualization
Sophia’s rolling mobile base was created by an interdisciplinary team of artists and engineers at Hanson Robotics. Their goal was to create a base design that is both aesthetically pleasing and more functional and reliable than anything they had produced before. The key to accomplishing this goal was having a multidisciplinary team of people with a variety of skills in both art and engineering. As is common practice in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), game design, and animatronics, the team first created low-fi prototypes to experiment with various ideas. The aesthetic design was an iterative process, with industrial designer Paul Whelan starting out by creating concept sketches and then transitioning into making 3D renders of various concepts.
After many design iterations, the team finally settled on a beautiful hexagonal base design that mimics the appearance of a human skirt. The designers then created the final CAD designs of the outer shells for manufacturing, while the base at the very bottom was made by a company called SuperDroid robots.
