New Robotic Maid Does Your Laundry Shuffles Around Like a Drunk Researchers at the Korea Institute of Science and Technology have created a robot that can do a number of basic household tasks It s not exactly sprightly but what are you going to do program the microwave yourself Mahru Z the four foot tall robotic helper developed by KIST can make toast pick up stray objects and load and operate a washing machine It can also find its own way through the rooms of a house though it walks with a painful hesitant gait that suggests a night of hard drinking The Mahru M model an earlier version created by the same team is a bit

more graceful using wheels to get from place to place Robotic maids have been around for a few years now but the Mahru Z is said by the people who made it to be the best yet at approximating human movement This may not be as much of a selling point as the developers believe based on the clip linked above so it s also worth noting that Mahru Z is relatively autonomous It can navigate the house without any direction or oversight from its owner and it can perform certain chores without having to be told Sadly neither Mahru model has been made commercially available yet However given other recent developments in the domestic robotics industry link may be NSFW it wouldn t surprise us if the Mahru Z line got fast tracked through development When you re busy having sex with your sexbot all the time those dishes have a tendency to pile up Contact information for this author is not available publish on Facebook Upload an image Add an image URL
