In order to make (business) travel more efficient, it would be useful to create a self-following suitcase for travelers, but this idea can also be used by example elderly when buying groceries or by other people who have to regularly transport objects. However, special attention has to be given to subjects like security, privacy, battery life and obstacle avoidance.
State of the Art
So far, a few companies have already tackled the case of self following suitcases. At several events such devices have been shown or demonstrated, but so far none have been sold to particulars yet. The companies currently working on a self following suitcase are:
- Olive robotics owned by IKAP Robotics from Iran (http://oliverobotics.com/)
- Travelmate robotics from the United States (https://travelmaterobotics.com/)
- ForwardX from China (https://www.forwardx.com/)
- Cowarobot from China (http://en.cowarobot.com/en/aboutus.htm)
- 90FUN owned by Shanghai Runmi Technology Co., Ltd. from China (https://www.90fun.us/puppy1)
- NUA Robotics from China (http://unbouncepages.com/nuarobotics/)
