I would like a robot that can simply patrol my house and make sure things are OK. It can detect, smoke, fire, flooding or gas leaks and warn me, whether I'm home or not. It can listen for intruders when I'm not home and use face tracking to quietly take pictures and upload them to the cloud and to me on my phone. I would like to be able to securely access it remotely from a web browser or smartphone app so that I can manually drive it anywhere in my house and see through it's camera and hear through it's microphone. It can let me see and talk to my pets or intruders. Also, it can find it's own charging station and recharge before going back on patrol.
