Misty
Robotics has announced the launch of its new Misty II programmable robot which
was first unveiled back in CES 2018 during January. The new programmable robot
builds on the design and technology included in the Misty I Developer Edition
prototype robot and has now been made available via a crowdunding campaign.
Early bird backers can preorder the new robot saving
50 percent of the recommended retail price which will take effect once the
crowdfunding campaign comes to a close.
The Misty II Robot has been in development for the
past two years and includes a wide variety of features including face recognition,
text-to-speech, face detection, navigation and mapping as well as the ability
to be easily programmed. The Misty Robotics crowdfunding
campaign has already raised over US$ 440,000 in just 40 hours. If all goes well
with manufacture worldwide shipping is expected to take place during December
2018.
