Astro, Household Robot for Home Monitoring, with Alexa, Includes 6-month Free Trial of Ring Protect Pro

Astro, a $999 “household robot,” was announced on September 28. According to Amazon’s debut trailer, the squat robot with two wheels and a rectangular screen with two orbs for eyes would be able to do things like watch your home or join impromptu dance parties.
There’s reason to be skeptical, especially because Astro is essentially a massive camera on wheels that will monitor everything you do. So, why would anyone be delighted to have one in their home? The reason for this is because of how our minds are wired. People can’t help but fall in love with robotic assistants and pets (or “robopets”), according to years of robotics study and prior incarnations.
Owners can develop a strong bond with their robopets. According to a review of studies published in 2019, robopets such as Paro (robotic seal), Justocat (robotic cat), Aibo (robotic dog), and Cuddler (robotic bear) reduced sadness and enhanced well-being in senior persons, just like real pets. Despite the fact that they were completely aware that the robopets were not real animals, they enthusiastically touched them. “I know it’s an inanimate item, but I can’t help but love her,” one woman said.
It’s not just robopets either. According to studies and experiences, the Roomba—a self-propelled, disc-shaped vacuum cleaner—is frequently considered “family” and may even be given a gender and a name. People were saddened when the servers that powered one of the earliest “social robots,” Jibo, were turned off. Despite the fact that Sony’s robot dog Aibo was entirely useless, people conducted funerals for them after the line was terminated.
