How about someone who will watch your house while you off to vacation, and alert you of any unusual activity? And then the kids, how about someone who will play with them, and keep them connected? Well, Buddy, that is where buddy comes in!

Able to hear, see and make coinciding head movements, 3- wheel supported for easy navigation, and armed with a plethora of sensors, buddy can easily travel, perform your tasks, play with kids, among other tasks on which you need help. https://res.cloudinary.com/indiegogo-media-prod-cld/image/upload/c_limit,w_695/v1435833300/pexyfwhdrc1xjersn5ag.gif Open source and really easy to use, Buddy guarantees home security while you are away. It will watch, monitor, and alert you of unusual activity, including physical conditions at home such as floods and temperature.
In this age of ‘smart’ everything, well, buddy ensures you have a ‘smart home’. It connects all of your smart devices such as light, wearable and thermostats.
Buddy’s mobile tele-presence, photos and videos sharing functionalities means you are also able to remain in social interaction and connect to social networks.
More than that, Buddy acts as your personal assistant. Imagine having someone who reminds you of important tasks and events on your to-do list! Who will practically suggest recipes, and give you weather and traffic updates! https://res.cloudinary.com/indiegogo-media-prod-cld/image/upload/c_limit,w_695/v1435833323/ojgmfrzsrdxb3fxzogsd.gif
Buddy can hear (recognize speech) and speak. It can see and respond with coinciding head movement, making sure you are able to communicate with him.
How about navigation? Well, that too is taken care of. Buddy’s mobility is guaranteed. Armed with a plethora of sensors, Buddy is able to roam, to learn and engage with the world around him.
To make sure your life is really easier, safer and funnier, Buddy, being a modular platform, allows you to indefinitely build upon and expand him with accessories.
