was always waiting for such personal hand in my house. Any thoughts on price for off-the-shelf product?

Price is <=$5000

wow, $5000 is quite a price. What is the purpose of this robotic device, solely communication?

May be, but our robot is not a toy. This is a quite serious instrument.

The main (but not sole!) feature is a telepresence with the ability to influence the surrounding objects. The reason for such price is the manipulator itself (~1/2 robot cost). To make it cheaper means to reduce the possibilities of the manipulator (or make it useless).

But I can say that $5000 is the top estimate of the retail price. We are planning to develop our robot in the direction of autonomous artificial intelligence after release (via free software updates). It means, he can bring you a beer from the fridge, for example.

Also $5000 is still lower than the price of existing home robots (for example, NAO or Pepper), despite the fact that Clapeyron is much more useful.

More use cases you can find in our whitepaper. Now we are refactoring wp and site to make the information more clear and demonstrative. New update is coming soon:)

just watched video. manipulator will be a great thing if he manage to deliver me coffee in the morning. BTW, what is its length ? Arguably I should consider myself as a buyer.

Thanks, just enough to reach my desk. I shall wait for its availability to buy. Hope it will cause no problem in Europe.
