Abstracts

Many futurists expect home robots will one day be as ubiquitous as TVs with use cases ranging from routine housekeeping chores to home maintenance to hazard detection to specialized medical and assisted living tasks. Using artificial intelligence (AI), robots may be able to learn from experience and learn to respond to human mood and emotions.

Robotics: Changing the Way You Live at Home covers the current status of robotics, identifies leading players in consumer robotics development, discusses applications for the connected home, and includes a five-year forecast for robotic floor cleaners.
