BIG-i, the Personalized Family Robot of the Future, Is Almost Here

By B.J. Murphy

There are home invasions commencing all across the world. Though the perpetrators are neither mischievous nor human. These invaders are robots and they’re here to become one of the family. Say hello to BIG-i, the first personalized family robot by robotics company NXROBO.

“NXROBO is an innovative robotics company established in 2015. Based in Shenzhen, the company was founded by leading professionals in the robotics industry, each with more than 10 years of experience in the field and a strong focus on user experience and a synergistic relationship between robots and people. With BIG-i, NXROBO has integrated cutting-edge robotic technology to meet consumers’ daily needs with a next-generation, multi-functional robot that will be a welcome part of every family.”

Joining an increasing roster of family robots, BIG-i is your personal robotic companion of the near future. It can hear, see, and even talk with you. With the simple gesture of voice commands, BIG-i will be able to provide adequate information as requested, complete tasks as commanded, and will even serve your needs when you’re away from home.

With its auto-navigational skills, BIG-i will be able to navigate itself throughout your home without effort. It’s capable of facial recognition, voice localization, and even motion tracking. So even if you’re on the move, BIG-i will follow suit. And don’t worry about charging, for it will also be equipped with an auto-dock charging capability as well.

NXROBO is prepared to bring BIG-i into any and all willing homes by April of next year, but they’ll need help to ensure it operates at peak efficiency and is everything we’ve ever dreamed of. Which is why they’ll soon be initiating their crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter where you’ll be able to purchase your own BIG-i for only $799.
