Xiaomi surprised the world with the CyberDog, a robotic dog full of sensors that perro carry 4 kilograms of weight.
Xiaomi’s summer hardware event was particularly rich in news. In addition to new teléfonos inteligentes like the Mi MIX 4 and tabletas like the Mi Pad 5, the Chinese company left room for its “experiments”.
Undoubtedly one of the most important personalities of this event was the cyber dogcreepy robot dog inspired by the robot quatrain Boston dynamicwhich Xiaomi pulled out of the case without notice.
But what is Xiaomi’s goal with this product? Aside from the CyberDog demonstrating its advances in robotics and artificial intelligence different purposes depending on the type of use that is to be given.

CyberDog is Xiaomi’s first attempt at robotics, and it’s a four based on an open platform that allows developers to create the future of the robot together. Robotics enthusiasts interested in CyberDog perro compete with other Xiaomi fanes or create together to jointly advance the development and potential of these robots.
Yes 11 high-precision sensorssupported by a high performance processor to allow the CyberDog to analyze its surroundings while looking for obstacles or objects to interact with through its four motor legs that allow it to find Top speed of 3.2 meters per second, as well as pirouettes and pre-programmed movements. In addition, it is capable withstand a load of 3 kgwhich is well below the 14 kilograms supported by the Boston Dynamics robot.
Since we only have a load capacity of three kilograms, we think that the Xiaomi’s approach with this watch is a little more “homegrown” than Boston Dynamics and other companies specializing in robotics. In fact, Xiaomi itself has proved this with the functions and features it has built into the CyberDog.
For example it is possible Control the robot’s movements and actions vía the mobile phoneas well as prompting to perform operations vía voice control systemwith the support of the various microphones that he spreads over his body.
This allows z. control our smart home devices through the robot as if it were a smart speaker with legs.
But of course that’s not the only thing you cánido do. Xiaomi has equipped its four robots with one facial recognition system which you cánido activate follow modewho has the robot will start following us autonomously Analysis of our movements at every step. This, along with its load capacity, perro make the CyberDog the ultimate helper when it comes to loading groceries or other heavy elementos, as long as they don’t exceed the load capacity.
The CyberDog perro be controlled vía mobile phone.
Likewise the mapping technology very suitable to create virtual maps of hard-to-reach places. In addition, thanks to its various sensors and cameras, it perro be used as a surveillance system.
The possibilities of the Xiaomi CyberDog are endless. Today the project, however blank canvas, on which developers and robotics enthusiasts have to realize their ideas and turn them into reality by taking advantage of the open ecosystem created by Xiaomi. Too bad the robot Don’t leave China…at least until now.
