Samsung has released a smart "roboball" Ballie

At CES 2020, which recently kicked off in Las Vegas, Samsung presented Ballie. It is a small robot that resembles a tennis ball. He "understands you, supports you and responds to your needs." Here are some scenarios for using it.

Samsung claims Ballie can be a homemaker, fitness consultant, and even friend for your kids and pets. Thanks to artificial intelligence, the robot is able to learn your habits and adapt to them, helping in everyday activities. You can give him tasks through a mobile interface or using voice commands.

The built-in camera allows you to use Ballie to monitor the apartment or to monitor the implementation of tasks. At any time, you can send the robot to the desired room and receive a picture on your smartphone. At the same time, the device adheres to strict standards of data protection and confidentiality, which excludes the possibility of remote connection to the device by intruders.

Ballie could be the name for a whole series of robots with different functions. For example, one will monitor the cleanliness and manage

smart vacuum cleaner, the other will be able to become an assistant in training, and the third will allow you to monitor the house, performing security functions. There is no information about the prices and timing of the start of sales of such devices.
