The Rovio robot is concerned, which made its debut last year at the Consumer Electronics Show. From an Internet-connected computer, the robot can run $ 250 in the house, seen from the built-in camera, and talk to people in the house through the microphone and speaker. In all respects, is a toy, but also was doing a very competent team of Telepresence.
The robots can be the ultimate downfall of the human race, but for now, most are beautiful or useful. One, which appears in both categories have spent the last week lurking quietly in a dark corner of my house, I see at every turn. Did I mention I'm glad this?
Unlike traditional web-cams, mounted or security cameras, Rovio is mobile. It has an integrated Wi-Fi antenna and three wheelers, which have small wheels of their own. This design means you can not manage the stairs, but was let go in all directions, without a lot of back and forth on the swing you would get with a vacuum. Meanwhile, you can see everything that has to do quality VGA streaming video.
