The robot [1]
Another invention which has undoubtedly revolutionized the 20th century is the robot in industries and in homes.
We have been waiting long and it has finally arrived! It serves drinks, brings your dinner, runs when you call it and best all…vacuums! All this for 800 euros! The robots are finally becoming functional. This one is called Cye. It is controlled by clapping hands – just program the actions in advance according to the numbers of claps.
For example. Clap twice, it will go to the kitchen, clap three times, it will go to the living room, etc... You could ask it to load up to 15 kilos in your car. Cye must first learn to move around in your apartment, so there should be a phase of training, where it is connected to your PC by radio (frequency), it bumps into everything and memorizes the plan of the location. After that it manages very well. And for vacuums, you just need to program the path on the computer and the job is done.
