And we begin with proof that a dog's nose knows.

A recent study from Queen's University in Northern Ireland showed that our pooches can tell when we're feeling frazzled.

The lingering question though is why?

Aaron Johnson, a mechanical engineering professor at Carnegie Mellon University, tells NBC News that while it's impressive Tesla has gotten to this level of development so quickly, it's still unclear why so many of these types of robots would be needed.
