Amazon's Astro

Over the next few years, we should expect a whole new, next-generation of more intelligent, congenial and capable robots for help in our houses and lives.  These new robotic assistants for humans are being developed in research labs, startups and at some of the biggest technology companies in the world including Samsung and Amazon. A great example of the Next-G of robots is Amazon's Astro.

Astro For Your Home

Astro was just introduced to the global market.  The $1,000 plus robot can move small objects on command from room to room to a designated recipient on the same floor, while simultaneously using its cameras to monitor as it moves around the house for any intruders. Multitasking robots are the future of domestic robots and Astro gives us a look at the new tech.

Megatrends in Robotics

Robots are now going from single task functionality like vacuuming to multitasking capabilities. Astro has a telescoping camera in its neck to monitor the owner's house.  It has a camera embedded in the tablet that serves as its face which also has capabilities as a video calling service unit.  Astro can use the camera to recognize faces.  That enables it, for example, to send snacks, a message or a teddy bear around the house to a child's room from parents watching a great football game in another room on TV.
