As an assistant, CanguRo can follow you around, carrying heavy loads such as shopping to your home. But if your legs get tired and you’d prefer not to walk, a tap on the accompanying app will prompt the robot to quickly transform into a mobility vehicle that’ll transport you to your destination at a gentle speed of 6.2 mph (10 kmh).
Although it can drive autonomously using mapping and positioning data as well as image recognition technology, manual control is also possible, with the rider able to control the speed with a throttle, and the direction by leaning left or right. While in manual mode, a smart-stop feature will take over if a hazard is detected up ahead.
CanguRo is still being developed — the team is currently working on giving it speech capabilities to offer the user a much more personal experience. Judging by the kind of friendly looks CanguRo receives from the lad in the video above, turning the machine into a kind of robot buddy appears central to future development work.
