HERB Let us take care of your household

My wife can tell you how much I hate housework to do, and perhaps it is time that we have a grass.

The Exploring Home Robot Butler is a project developed by Intel and is in a position to do some basic tasks such as clearing the table, meals served, and my least favorite task: Do the dishes.

Yes, it's too good to be true. Not only that it is a bit slow to be practical, according to my sources. Apparently, as best he can do is identify what you, the owner wants grass, and then take it. Just as when a soda can, for example, you might want to ask it, even you extend your hand so it does not drop in your palm.

However, I would not even mind if HERB slept through the night to clean the next day. I'm sure I would eventually learn to live with him moving in the night when I could wake up to a clean kitchen and living room, the next day.

Yeah, I do not really know where we are doing in this world where robots all live our work for us. I think my dream a staff of Rosie Jetsons are by far not implemented.
