Buddy's a smiling robot who takes security seriously

Smart Home
[MUSIC] We're here out on the noisy show floor of CES unveiled taking a look at Buddy. This friendly looking guy was first debuted on Indiegogo back in 2015. Now its here ready for production. You can interact with Buddy in a number of different ways. The primary way is with your voice. You can tell Buddy what you want to do, from controlling your smart home, to playing music, to going on a security patrol, to playing games with your kids. Buddy's security route is pretty advanced. You can have him just stand in one spot and watch a location. You can have him go from waypoint to waypoint looking for something something out of the ordinary or you can have Buddy take a random patrol and leave the judgment Up to this guy. But he's gonna be a costly $1,500 when it comes out to the US later this year. So it's gonna need to be a really useful friend if it's gonna be worth that much money. But at the very least, he's kind of charming. [MUSIC]
