Saw a demo of this robot on youtube. It’s loud, heavy, and can’t carry all that much. Plus, it sometimes looses connection to the person it’s following. Unless they address these issues, I don’t see this thing doing well. Why would anyone buy what amounts to a 40 lbs, $3000, noisy backpack that can only follow you as long as the terrain is ideal? In 99% of cases, a backpack is better, and even a person carrying a backpack for you is cheaper and more versatile.
