Moons of agv robots2/8/2024 ![]() ![]() The incorporation of AI into these domestic helpers is giving them the ability to absorb inputs and real-time data and make independent decisions. But what’s coming is a leap in robot capability brought on by artificial intelligence (AI). They are now commonly found in homes and are no longer novelties. They wash windows, mow the grass, shampoo carpets, and more. These consumer products no longer just clean floors. ![]() Since that first interaction with my Roomba, I have been following the changes happening to domestic robots. As smart machines go, I considered it slow with not much of an IQ. It often ran out of power before it could make it back to its docking station. It had to be steered away from stairs and sometimes got tangled in wires or stuck under a piece of furniture. The Roomba was smart enough to cross the floor in what appeared to be a random pattern as it picked up dust, hair, crumbs, and other detritus. It got the attention of our dog Maya who would walk away anytime the Roomba entered the room where she was resting. Twelve years ago I bought my first Roomba, a robot vacuum cleaner. This posting covers robotics: where we are today and where we expect they will be by the end of this decade and a bit beyond. To start the year I thought a look ahead on various topics would be interesting. To date, more than 3,800 postings are to be found on the site, so I hope when you visit that you can use the tags, categories, menus, and search window to maximize the value of each visit. I am glad to have you along for the ride. Welcome to 2024, the beginning of the 15th year of this blog.
