CES 2023 has been showing technological innovations since last Thursday (5), and this includes the Aeo robot, developed by the company Aeolus. In addition to disinfecting surfaces, the invention can also help in the care of the elderly, by detecting whether the person has fallen or needs medical help.
The novelty mainly aroused the attention of Japan, as robots for the elderly have been a booming industry in the country for some time, due to the aging population. In addition, Aeo has been used by hospitals and companies in Hong Kong and Taiwan.
The Aeo has autonomous navigation, thanks to a series of cameras and infrared sensors in its base. The robot also has the ability to use its right arm to open doors and ride elevators, while disinfecting surfaces using ultraviolet light.
The friendly robot can also help with security, as it notices open windows, intruders or lost objects. Another Aeo service is the delivery of food or products in general. It is worth mentioning that it can also be operated remotely when necessary.
“Equipped with two arms, the aeo uses one to perform vital tasks such as delivery or disinfection, while the second arm of the aeo operates elevators and opens doors. Overcoming human limitations to improve organizational productivity, Aeo automates tasks for maximum accuracy and repeatability . Reduce possible security problems for the team, assigning inconvenient tasks”, points out the description of the robot on the company’s website.
