Smart home robot assistant

This invention describes a robot that can bring things into or out of your smart home. When it senses an object, like a delivery package, is ready outside, the robot asks to retrieve it. It then temporarily turns off a part of your home's smart system, picks up the object, brings it inside to a designated spot, and turns the smart system back on. The claims specifically focus on handling delivery packages within a set time window.

Why it matters: Filed before widespread adoption of advanced AI for object recognition and autonomous navigation. The software for identifying packages and navigating complex home environments is now significantly more accessible.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
How hard to build: SpecializedMobile robot hardware, smart home integration, complex software
