Astro is a brand-new type of robot unveiled by Amazon last year. It intends to provide convenience when people are at home and peace of mind. To create Astro, years of innovation and overcoming extremely challenging technological problems were necessary.  Customers responded positively to the device’s autonomous navigation, intelligent mobility, and charming personality since we started distributing it.

Astro now recognizes pets and home objects

According to a report by Wired, these new features not only include pet detection. It also includes the ability to identify and inspect particular windows and doors at home. As a form of rolling security system that supports current stationary cameras like Ring. This is a component of Astro’s present core security system capability.

Meanwhile, it appears that among the early Astro owners, pet detection was one of the most requested functions. When it detects movement, it can recognize dogs and cats and sends us a video. However, unlike person detection, Astro is unable to distinguish between pets and instead relies on a larger model that is centered on cats and dogs.

In order to enable new capability while the Astro is “on patrol” around a person’s home later this year. Astro records a little video of a person’s pet dog or cat and sends it via Live View when it sees them as part of Alexa Together.

According to Amazon’s Ken Washington, vice president of consumer robotics, says Live View will be accessible to communicate with a pet or take photos for the pet’s photo albums. This would give “a living link” with the pets, and as a result, peace of mind regarding them wherever they are.

Additionally, Astro now possesses improved situational awareness. While Astro may plan its own patrol routes through the house. At the same time, it will actively focus on the items customers want to learn about. Also letting them know if anything is amiss by utilizing a new multimodal AI feature. 

Here, Astro will pick up knowledge by seeing an object, like a door, and hearing users talk about it. This is similar to closing the doors and including that knowledge into its monitoring responsibilities. Astro will snap a picture of any issues it finds, transmit them to the user, and wait for further instructions if necessary.

Amazon is also releasing a new software development kit for owners who want to alter their own Astro (SDK). Till date Amazon didn’t provide any information regarding availability. 

As per Washington, Students at the Georgia Institute of Technology, the University of Maryland, and the University of Michigan will be able to access an early version of the SDK.

Here, robotics students can contribute to the development of the robot’s third-party features. Amazon seems to view Astro as a kind of platform on which developers may add functionality since it has grown to be the case with so much consumer gear over the previous ten years.
