Robotic surgery systems are getting more sophisticated all the time. The ZAP-X is a robotic system for
“image-guided stereotactic radiosurgery for tumors, lesions and conditions in the brain, head and neck.” It has a self-shielded design and enables neurosurgeons and radiation oncologists to deliver radiation therapy more effectively.
A bunch of companies are working on perfecting autonomous vehicles. The i-mobility Type C-20 is an autonomous concept vehicle from AISIN Group. It is a bus-like vehicle with an in-cabin monitoring system with onscreen graphics that respond to rider interest and local attractions.
In the future, robots will cook our food for us. Take Samsung’s Bot Chef for instance: it is a smart dual-arm robot that can help with chopping, whisking, and other common tasks. It is powerful enough to lift common, everyday kitchen items.
The Bot Chef can work alongside people safely. It uses AI and machine-learning to let you program tasks using voice control, app, or physical manipulation.

Meet the Robosen T9: a smart robot that transforms from a car into a humanoid and vice versa at the push of a button. It has 22 high-precision servo motors that enable it to walk, run, dance, fight, and drive with smooth movement. It has an app that lets you program the robot via drag & drop. You can also execute a wide variety of preset moves and routines.
Here is a robot that can bring you a roll of toilet paper when you are stuck without any in the bathroom. The Charmin RollBot comes with Bluetooth and smartphone connectivity. It has self-balancing tech and uses infrared sensors to navigate your home.
Robotis is behind some of the best educational robot kits around. We have already covered with the ROBOTIS ENGINEER Kit 1. It was designed to help students explore coding, vision processing, robotic manipulation and AI. The ROBOTIS ENGINEER Kit 2 (MAX-E2) features 2XL430 servos to produce smooth movement.

Here is another security robot that can take on challenging tasks such as industrial inspection and fire protection. The QilingUAV-track can patrol a place automatically. It has smart sensors, including laser radar, GPS, and IMU to avoid obstacles and stay out of trouble. The below video shows it in action:
Here is another 3D printed Arduino robot designed to teach you a thing or two about robots and coding. The LittleArm V3 comes with Bluetooth. It has a new gripper that is one 3D printed part.
Teaching kids Python right off the bat may be too much. The Kamibot Pi takes a step-by-step approach to it. It is a coding robot that can play soccer, draw, escape a maze, and do everything in between.
Meet the LG CordZeroThinQ Robotic Mop: a new robot that can clean your home more efficiently. It has front-mounted dual eye camera to detect and recognize surroundings to avoid obstacles. You can connect the robot to the LG CordZeroThinQ R9 robot vacuum via WiFi, so mopping starts after vacuuming is finished.
