This is the Lume: a floor lamp that doubles as a robotic arm to make your bed and do other basic chores. It has a sleek anodized aluminum construction and serves as an adaptive lamp with automatic brightness and color adjustment. As you can see in the below video, Lume has a robotic arm inside its structure. It has a footprint of 11 x 15 x 45 inches when folded. It is smart enough to operate safely around humans and pets.
Lume is optimized for handling soft materials, so whether you want it to make your bed or fold your clothes, this robot can handle it. Those of you who have played around with robots know that single-arm robots have certain limitations. The good news is you can get two of these to get tasks done more efficiently. A pair of these cost you under $2500 at the time of this writing. That gets you lifetime software updates and no need for a subscription.
