Hate dragging your suitcase through the airport? This just might be the new technology for you!
Debuted this week at CES, here's a Daily Mail rundown on the product:
- ForwardX Robotics CX-1 has sensors and four-wheel-drive to avoid obstacles
- It uses 170° wide angle camera and lidar to help position itself as it manoeuvres
- It also comes equipped with an alert bracelet that goes off if it goes out of range
- Small hand gestures can be used to ensure the case follows a user’s commands
