Aido

Aido is designed to be a perfect companion at home. This beautifully crafted machine is the convergence of the most advanced technologies on the horizon, a showpiece for Robotics innovation. 

Aido observes, recognizes people and tries to interact and help when appropriate.

Aido has a unique visual manager that lets you create sets of activities for weekdays, or your vacation time, including environment monitoring, and patrol paths. He comes with pre-loaded software for family health, kitchen end house maintenance.

Aido balances himself on a ball and can maneuver around furniture, and other minor obstacles in your house. Aido’s omni-directional ball also lets him navigate complex spaces without turning around.

Aido can convert your house into a smart home and can control compatible lighting, air conditioning, doors and appliances.

Aido is scheduled to be launched in Fall 2016.

 

Here is a short look into some of the things you can do with Aido:
