Cleaning Robot

Hands Free 👋🏻- 🗣Voice Controlled

If you have read our previous newsletter about technology giants🚀, we have already introduced a few hands-free voice-controlled devices such as the VR headset Vision Pro and the personal assistant Alexa.

When we upgrade devices to enable them to

• sense their environment, 👁

• process information, and 🧠

• perform tasks 💪🏻

  based on pre-programmed instructions or AI algorithms, they gain the ability to make decisions or carry out actions WITHOUT human guidance. And then they can be called the “ROBOT”!

Cleaning Robot is a good example !

It effortlessly navigates and adapts to various environments, ensuring every corner is spotless without constant human intervention. 🚀 With its smart detection systems, it tackles a wide range of cleaning tasks, from floors to windows, all while integrating seamlessly with smart home systems for customized operation. 🧹🪟 

This isn't just a step forward in cleaning technology; it's a leap towards a more efficient, cleaner, and smarter living and working space. 🌱💡

Robot Companion ❤️

👩‍❤️‍👨Your friend who is 100% compatible with you

When we think of robots, we often associate them with functionality, efficiency, and whether they are worth the money.

However, this is not always the case, as many times we simply want to relax and do nothing with our ❤️ loved ones. If you live alone, feel lonely, and just want to feel loved, a robot companion may be perfect!

Japan🇯🇵 is famous for its love for cute little robots! Today, they have brought this love to life and normalized having one at home as a companion.

In this video, a grandpa interacts with a robot called "Lovot," and the family says the grandpa seems happier 😊, talks more, and moves more physically 🏃‍♂️. The Lovot doesn't have any specific "function" except that it follows you 🚶‍♂️ and calls you like a little cat 🐱 would. The camera on top serves as a CCTV 📹 so that family members who are not at home 🏠 can see what's going on.

Many show interest in the Lovot, and it is reasonably priced.

This could very well be our normal future!

HouseKeeping Robot

The Real Deal !😱🤖

Do you fancy hiring a housekeeper👩🏻‍🍳 who excels in housework (not just vacuuming), cooks🍳for you, does laundry👚, makes your bed 🛏, serves you coffee☕️, waters your plants☘️, waits for you at home🏡, with no complaints whatsoever ?

Well, we may very well have a chance of hiring one!

In January 2024, the Mobile Aloha project was introduced. It is an open-sourced project led by researchers at Google DeepMind and Stanford University.

With teleoperation controlled by the user, it can perform laundry 🧺, self-charge 🔋, operate a vacuum cleaner 🧹, water plants 🌱, load and unload the dishwasher 🍽️, operate a coffee machine ☕, and much more.

ALOHA is a nimble robot 🤖 capable of moving at human walking speeds of 1.42 meters per second 🚶, and it has the capacity to carry weights up to 100 kilograms 💪. It also possesses fingers🖖🏼 that are adept at manipulating small to tiny objects! ✨

Watch the entire video released by researcher ZiPeng Fu and see if this is what you have been dreaming of!
