iRobot Ember LANdroids On Video

Writing by Evan Ackerman on Wednesday, 20 of May , 2009 at 3:47 am

Those little Ember robotic LAN nodes that we wrote about on Monday have shown up in an iRobot video. There isn’t really any new information here, but I was impressed by how effective the little flippers are at getting the bot up and over obstacles that look impossibly tall. It doesn’t look quite big enough to climb stairs, but as long as it can make it over railroad tracks and curbs, it should have no trouble getting around typical urban environments.
