Aeolus Robotics Rosie prototype (spotted at CES 2018) is expected to be available by the end of 2018, will reportedly cost as much as a car at around $US20,000 ($25,000) and is described by Aeolus as being the height and weight of a 12 year old — however undoubtedly more house-trained.

Aeolus robot can distinguish between family members’ faces, recognize where household items are supposed to go (then put them back in place) and can keep a sly eye open for emergencies like a fire or notice a change in posture and possibly prevent a fall.The yet to be officially named “Aeolus Robot” can also move furniture, find lost items and even learn the household schedule via an information sharing network.
