Video Monday: iRobot Create Learns To Be Useful, Fetches Beer

Writing by Evan Ackerman on Monday, 2 of March , 2009 at 5:44 am

Hamsters are cute and all, but what have they done for me lately? I think iRobot has a handle on their next great consumer product with this Create, which has been modified to fetch you a beer soda from the fridge:

The Create Fridgemate looks like it’s easily capable of emptying a 12 pack for you, and it takes long enough in fetch mode to give you time to pound each one in sequence without killing yourself. I don’t know if it can tell good beer from cheap beer, but if it keeps leaving the fridge open, everything’ll get downgraded to “warm” anyway.
