Amazon unveils Jetsons like roaming robot for home
September 30, 2021
Amazon’s new robot can hear, see and follow you around the home, but it’s no Rosey the Robot.
Amazon’s version, called Astro, doesn’t cook or clean like an animated character from “The Jetsons,” yet it can check on the off chance that you left the stove on while you’re out or send an alert in the event that someone enters into the house it doesn’t recognize.
It utilizes cameras, sensors, and artificial technology to stay away from walls, and Amazon said Astro will just get smarter over the long haul. It does some housework, Snacks or a jar of pop can be set on its back to being carted to someone across the house.
The $1,000 robot, which will be sent out to clients later this year, was one of a huge number of devices Amazon unveiled Tuesday as a part of its annual event ahead of the holidays.
Astro, nonetheless, stole the show. Amazon chief David Limp asked the 17-inch-tall robot to come in front of an audience during the virtual event, then, at that point, asked it to beatbox. Its round digital eyes close or widen as it does tasks, giving it a human-like touch.
