Aeolus™: “Smart” and Versatile

As Over Coffee® counts down to CES® 2019, here's another of our most popular CES® 2018 interviews.  We can't wait to see the latest updates, in Las Vegas in January!

Suppose you have guests coming.  The clock is ticking.  You have a massive to-do list.

So--you sit back and nonchalantly sip a cold drink.  Meanwhile, your home robot assistant begins to tidy up, vacuum and dust.

Alex Huang, founder and CEO of San Francisco-based Aeolus™ Robotics, has created a domestic robot that could make this scenario a reality.

During  CES® 2018, in Las Vegas, we saw Aeolus™ Robotics demo the world's first multifunctional robot.

Using AI, the Aeolus™ domestic robot can learn the tasks specific to your home.  She can serve you a cold beverage, sweep, pick up--and keep learning new tasks.

In the demo we saw, the robot picked up clutter from the floor, vacuumed and brought her demonstrator a cold drink--all in response to voice commands.

After the demo session, Alex talked about his experiences creating and using Aeolus™, how the robot works and the directions in which he plans to develop this smart home robot in the future!

On this edition of Over Coffee®, you will hear:

How Aeolus™ works;

The factors behind the inspiration for the robot;

Why artificial intelligence makes this particular robot unique;

Future plans for the robot to grow and expand its capabilities.

What Aeolus™’ artificial-intelligence learning curve is like;

One of Alex’s favorite experiences with using the robot in his own home;

What the robot can recognize, through AI;

Future plans for Aeolus™ to expand its capabilities, and the additional environments in which it would be able to function.

CES® 2019 runs from Tuesday, January 8th through Friday, January 11th in Las Vegas.  We'll be looking forward to bringing you the latest of all kinds of cool innovations at the intersection of art and science.  And we hope we see Alex, and Aeolus™, for a look at what's coming in 2019!
