Reactive Robotic Dog Companions

The 'ORo' Robot Tends to the Needs of Canines at CES 2024

— January 10, 2024 — Tech
The 'ORo' robot is an accessory for pet owners introduced by Ogmen Robotics at CES 2024 to help give them more peace of mind when leaving their furry friend at home alone. The robot is engineered with a roving design that will keep an eye on a dog throughout the day and boasts advanced artificial intelligence (AI) technology to automatically detect when a dog requires entertainment, food, comforting or general attention. The robotic pet nanny is also equipped with two-way audio functionality and an interactive video display to let owners communicate with their pet in real-time.

The 'ORo' robot has a built-in kibble dispenser for dosing out treats as required, but also works with connected feeders to fill bowls on demand.
