The field of personal robotics seems to reach at an enthusiastic level where the developers are trying to reach the peak of it and harness every mechanical substitute from these machines, be it science, manufacturing, or the military. These robots are being groomed for your living room too. That will give you the liberty to exploit your favorite house-bot without caring about any moral factor.
Some of the examples, which are ready to become the member of your family, are robot like Robosapien, QRIO, AIBO, I-CYBIE, iRobiQ and practical house-bots like the Roomba vacuum cleaner. iRobiQ works with home’s own technology and broadband internet service, and obeys your voice commands - like, to turn on the washing machine, change the TV channel, dim the lights or change the music, or work as watchman at night, and can wake you up in the morning with a song too. According to Simon Turner, the group buying director at PC World:
Consumer robotics is a sector that is expanding rapidly and we’re betting that we’ll all have some kind of robot servant in our homes within ten years
Spykee, a great surveillance tool for the home, with a web-enabled camera on board, can make VoIP telephone calls over the internet, and is another example along with three new members of the family Spykee Miss, Spykee Cell and Spykee Vox. These are a few robots among many others and there are still more under development. That means future with lethargic humans and active robots, waiting to knock at your doors. I wish one who could chew the food for me and just transfer the energy into my body. That would just be great.
