5 Robots Ideal Servants from the CES 2019 Event


Improvement in robotics technology are showing off at the Consumer Electronic Show (CES) floor in 2019 in Las Vegas, United States. There are so many choices of robots that can follow you and do some tasks as a waiter.

Samsung Bot Care
Samsung surprised many people when it ended its press conference with robots. Samsung Bot Care slides onto the stage and measures the host's heart rate and blood pressure. That is only one of three robots announced by Samsung.

Samsung Bot Care offers a healthier and more comfortable life. When you sleep, this robot can identify patterns and sleep disorders. When you are young, Bit Care will give you morning directions about the weather and remind you to take medication.

Not only that, the robot can also play music with lighting effects called Samsung as music therapy. As mentioned, Bot Care can monitor your vital signs synchronized with Samsung Health.

This Samsung robot can also detect if there are items that fall and can remind families or emergency services. Overall, Bot Care can be a very reliable friend.

Samsung also publishes Samsung Retail Bot. This robot is designed for retail such as shops or shopping centers. Customers will be directed to the product they are looking for or the robot itself that brings the product to the customer.

This bot has a voice recognition feature and a touch screen for navigation. Naturally, cellular payments are integrated into bots too. The bot will even recognize what the consumer is wearing and will provide accessory recommendations.

Samsung also introduced Samsung Bot Air. This is an adaptive air cleaning machine that automatically moves around the house to where the air needs cleaning.

UBTech
Some of the UBTech shows at the CES 2019 show are quite interesting. The first is Cruzr, a service robot that is mostly targeted at retail space such as Samsung Retail Bot. In the UBTech demonstration area, Cruzr welcomes you at the door and provides information about products in the store through a touch screen interface, even delivering you to selected products.

Cruzr is a friendly and great robot that makes customers feel comfortable. Most likely, this smart robot will be adopted by retail companies.

Walker
The star of UBTech is Walker. As the name implies, Walker is a free walking robot that can navigate around the house, pick up items, open doors, and provide entertainment through its onboard speakers. In the demo, robots walked around the apartment, hung bags, took soda and cans of chips, played music, even danced.

Walker has a big position and is definitely expensive even though UBTech hasn't announced any prices. In this sophisticated robot, there are many moving parts and many sensors that make the price of this robot will not be cheap.

Temi
Temi is a slimmer version of a personal assistant bot. Sensor Temi locks you and follows you at home as needed. Temi will welcome in front of the door and you can recharge the smartphone battery on the robot because it is facilitated by Qi wireless charging.

At present, Temi uses a special interface for touch control and can play music and other audio. Temi can also receive video calls and bring the screen to you when you need it.

You can control Temi remotely using an iOS or Android App, turning it into a security system or just a way to check family conditions. Temi offers telepresence technology which is a new way to interact with your family. Telepresence allows you to be present in the middle of the family virtually through Temi.

Temi costs 1,499 US dollars or around Rp. 21 million. Value that is quite competitive considering many things Temi can do.

Misty II
One of the more interesting robots at CES named Misty II. Adorable little robot, 18 inches tall, filled with sensors and modules to expand its capabilities.

Misty II is being built by Misty Robotics, the company founded by Ian Bernstein, previously called Sphero, a small ball robot called BB-8. However, Misty II was built as a platform for developers and applications that might make it a commercial product one day.

The aim is to democratize the development of robots by making platforms easy and open to developers. According to Bernstein, a developer must be able to build the first "skill" for Misty II in about 30 minutes.

Misty II has built a developer community with limited availability. Bernstein cites two extraordinary examples of the spirit of the developer community. Mentioned, a developer has built a virtual Misty II platform kit so that other developers can build and test skills without having a physical unit. Other developers install it on the webcam and provide an interface for loading skills so that others can test via live streaming.
