Toshiba Wheelie Is A Cute And Autonomous Robot

Toshiba Wheelie Is A Cute And Autonomous Robot

Toshiba looks like it’s doing its part to ensure that we all have little helper robots to serve us in the future. The company has come up with the prototype “Wheelie” robot, which is an indoor, autonomous, 2-wheeled robot. It looks a little like something a marriage between a Segway transporter and mini bar would produce, but as long as it’s cute, right? The aim of the robot is to help out with the daily chores, such as serving food. Currently you’ll still need to place the plates and glasses on top of the robot’s head, and it will sort out the rest. If you want to see this little robot in action, check out the video after the break.

Universal Drying Apparatus

If you happen to live at a place where snow is more common that a bright, sunny day, then chances are your shoes will suffer from the problem of being wet most of the time. While there are tons of ways to keep your shoes dry or help them achieve that status, the Universal Drying Apparatus offers much more, since it can not only dry shoes but other household items including clothing, accessories, umbrellas and heck - even seeds and berries! A trio of extenders are located on this sphere which can be clamped on or moved around to support a wide range of configuration.

Audio Lounger Concept Looks Desirable

Audio Lounger Concept Looks Desirable

We certainly don’t mind tech seeping into our everyday items, and the Audio Lounger concept certainly looks like one of those things we wouldn’t mind making room for. It sports four built-in high quality speakers and a (rather noticeable) large subwoofer, not to mention a touchscreen panel on the upper side of the seat to keep you in touch with your favorite music. This design by Matt Hardman also includes LED lights that offer ambient light that can be set with a range of colors, giving this concept lounger a futuristic look. Now we only have to wait for someone to mass produce this.
