Robotic porters will greatly facilitate the lives of women

Budgee is a small mobile robot that is capable of transporting weight up to 50 pounds (22 kg close). The developers, the company Five Elements Robotics, are convinced that the device will greatly facilitate daily life.





The robot can be especially useful for elderly people or disabled people who need assistance. For convenience of storage or transport it can be folded.
The average duration of battery life is 6-8 hours of use, after which the battery needs recharging. Budgee can be controlled using a tablet or phone on iOS/Android, including to specify the distance at which the robot will follow the owner, or choose the color of his "eyes". In that case, if the device is out of range or empty, it will send a voice call using the connected device.
