Here are the list of best Home Robots 2020 featured in CES 2020, which are yet to be available in the market, hopefully it will be available in 2021.
Petit Qoboo (Yukai Engineering)
If tickles and tummy rubs are your main reason for wanting a feline friend, Petit Qoboo could be the weird almost-animal for you. A furry therapy pillow with an expressive tail, this companion robot looks for all the world like a disembodied cat butt.
Petit model debuted at CES 2020 is still in the prototype stage. Its creator, Yukai Engineering, is working to an ambitious schedule, and hopes its miniature cat butts will hit the shelves at the end of the year.
Reachy (Pollen Robotics)
The bouncing antennae of Reachy make it look vaguely insect-like, which is unfortunate as it is a remarkable engineering feat. An arm has seven degrees of freedom, and its specialized neck joint enables a remarkably lifelike way for its head to pan, twist and tilt.
Like MarsCat, Reachy is open source – you can use Python to create your own programs for it to run, and developer Pollen Robotics suggests it could be used for research and development, as a robotic receptionist, or as a helpful tour guide.
It will cost about $17,000 (about £,13,000, AU$25,000) for the complete version of Reachy, with a head, body, and two arms, but a version with only one arm is available for $9,000 (about £7,000, AU$13,000).
RollBot (Procter & Gamble)
RollBot is one of CES’ most humorous novelties, a distinctly bear-shaped gadget that balances on two wheels, Segway style, and if you run out it will carry you a fresh roll of toilet paper. RollBot is Bluetooth-enabled, so while scrolling through your Facebook news feed, you can call RollBot from your computer. Just like a robot vacuum cleaner, it makes its way around your house, balancing your refill roll on its hexagonal head.
Unfortunately, RollBot won’t be knocking on your bathroom door with a fresh roll any time soon, amusing as it may be. According to brand director Rob Reinerman, it was established as part of Charmin GoLab, a concept lab that will enable the paper brand to “finally extend beyond just the seat.”
