Toshiba Smarbo, the new roomba
.
We've all seen the iRobot, LG, and Samsung robots, but there's a new bot on the market. Smarbo is the latest in robot vacuum technology and its developers are Toshiba. This robot has some very cool innards such as 38 sensors for a better job well done, and CPU(s) that aid with the "double brain function." However that's not all, Toshiba claims that this little pie shaped robot can clean over 1,000 square feet in about 90 minutes. Toshiba also plans to release this bot on October first, and its price tag isn't too thrifty, being at a big $1,000. Well, thanks for reading and we will add a video of this amazing bot when the video first comes out.

.
Well if your the kind of person that likes to build robots on an inexpensive budget then say hello to RoboBuilder Robotics Construction Kit. This kit is only (based on ERP) five hundred and eighty dollars, and the best part is that is humanoid. Not only can it walk, but it can use its arms to do things too.
