The C.A.R.T. (Carrying Autonomous Robotic Technology)

 

It can help you carry most anything.  We’re demonstrating it as a shopping cart, luggage cart, and a laundry cart.  It uses IR (Infrared) light rays to follow a person holding an IR source.  It can navigate through isles, around obstacles, and there are options for indoor and outdoor terrains.

The S.E.A.D. (Super Electronic Animal Food Dispenser)

 

Do you like feeding your pet, when you have a million other things to do?  Well, we have a solution! The owner puts food into our top container.  A computerized brick located on a window sill will sense light from the sun; and sends a message to the second computer that it’s feeding time.

 

The controller will check two sensors in the dish that tell the robot what the level of the food is.  If the food is not at the sensor’s level, the robot tells a revolving plate in a flow control chamber to move.  The plate moves back and fourth in a jiggle motion letting the food fall easily into the dish. 

 

The robot again, checks the sensors to make sure the food is at the correct level, if it is not, it does the jiggle process again. This will keep your dog fed for up to 4 days!
