It is no secret that robots can be quite effective against fires. We have already covered many wheeled firefighter robots in the past. The Dragon Firefighter is a 4 meter long, remote controlled flying firehose robot that can put out fires in buildings without putting any human in danger.
This is the NOESIS Florio: a 2-in-1 robot vacuum and mop that keeps your home clean. A powerful robot with a fully autonomous dock that replaces pads, refills water, and collects dust. It has 5100pa suction and a powerful mopping action to remove stubborn dirt. It also has a smart mop lift technology.
Elephant Robotics is behind some of the best robot kits for research and education. Their Elephant Robotics Artificial Intelligence 3D Vision Kit can be combined with a Raspberry Pi robotic arm for more complex tasks. The kit comes with a camera for 3D recognition and positioning.
Meet the XiaoR Geek XR ROS Pro: an AI robot dog for Raspberry Pi that can take your coding to the next level. This 12DOF bionic dog has AI vision. It has a 3D depth camera and can track targets, recognize faces and QR codes and detect edges. This particular version comes with WiFi and Android/iOS control.
This is the LimX Dynamics CL-1: a humanoid robot that uses advanced motion control and AI algorithms for dynamic stair climbing. It is smart enough to proactively adjust its motion to take smooth steps. The below video shows it going through tests:
As explained in the video, CL-1 perceives its environment in-real-time to achieve dynamic notion. It works on flat ground, stairs, and slopes.

With the CES 2024 just around the corner, we are already hearing about smart home products that many companies will be showcasing at the event. LG’s AI Agent is a robotic smart home hub with a two-legged wheel design. It uses a camera, speaker, and various sensors to gather data about its surroundings.
Here is another hexapod robot that can take your coding to the next level. The XiaoR Geek Hexapod J1 Jetson Nano Spider Robot has 18DOF. It has a HD camera, so it is ready for visual recognition. It is ready for Python and C++ programming. You can use your phone to adjust the robot’s body height and walking speed.
Elephant Robotics is behind some of the coolest robots we have covered. It has now introduced a family of humanoid robots for personal and commercial tasks. The Mercury A1 is a 7DOD robotic arm powered by CM4Stack control and myPanel OS. The B1 is a semi-humanoid with 17DOF and two x A1 robotic arms. It is powered by a NVIDIA Xavier chip. It has a 9-inch touchscreen display.
Concrete printing robots are nothing new. We have covered a bunch of them that can be used to erect buildings fast. KUKA’s robots can be used for 3D print of any custom design in concrete. Print 4D is using one with max payload of 210kg and max reach of 3.1m.
The above video has more info on this.
