A robot that helps
you with day-to-day household tasks, making your life easier. These little
in-home companions serve a variety of purposes: everything from educational assistance to schedule
organization. The robot has an endearing appearance, with a
head complete with a touchscreen "face" and a small lower body that
allows the robot to roll around. The home robot assistant can be used as a
personal assistant that reminds homeowners of their appointments, schedules,
medications and also can detect emergencies.
When not being used as a screen
for a variety of functions including taking pictures, revealing recipes and
reading stories and songs to children, the robot has large eyes and dramatic
facial expressions. Companies like Boston Dynamics have
already developed a wide variety of robot assistants that can be used in
factories or on the battlefield. The company originally started as an arm of
MIT and has since pioneered the development of intelligent robots that operate
effectively in the real world.
Knightscope is another company
working on a line of robot assistants for security applications. For example,
its K5 robot features four cameras and can recognize 300 licenses plates
per minute, per camera. It can also detect suspicious networks that may be
operated by hackers.
