If today you own a "robot" at home, it is definitely a food processor like a stand-alone vacuum cleaner. But your next robot could very well be Kuri, a so-called social robot, who participates in the life of the house and keeps an eye on everyone.
At the level of gestures and expressions, Kuri can shake his head and blink his eyes to express joy or even exasperation on his face. It also has a loudspeaker in order to express itself.
Kuri also has a 1080p camera and a highly sensitive microphone. It is also equipped with several sensors that allow it to map its space in order to move by avoiding obstacles. A mobile app is of course available to allow you to give it orders and you can even give them by voice, it will recognize your orders. For example, he may find that your dog is sitting on the couch when he is not allowed to do so. Kuri then tells him to go down. Finally, Kuri can even play with your children at certain games to distract them or take care of them if you are busy.
The so-called "social" robots will perhaps be the next technological and connected devices that will join your dwellings as pets. Their success seems to be announced, but maybe when their price will be more affordable. Moreover, other manufacturers position themselves in this market as Asus is about to launch Zenbo, his own robot of apartment.
