Would you trust your kids with a robot? The Rovar X3 is designed to handle the outdoors, from daily walks to hikes, and act as a sports companion and even a babysitter. It’s not very tall, just about 1.5 feet fully standing, but Sentigent Technology, the startup behind the Rovar, says it could carry a backpack on a hike and hang out with your kids in the park. But don’t go out for too long: the battery life range is between 4 and 6 hours.
