Budgee™ is a friendly robot which follows you around and carries your stuff. Budgee™ is very easy to operate. Simply turn on the transceiver, touch the power button on the top of his head, and he is ready to follow you. Budgee™ is portable, folding easily to fit into the back of a car for transportation to your destination. It weighs less than 20 lbs and can carry up to 50 lbs. Budgee™'s rechargeable battery will last up to 8 hours. Optionally, it can talk to you and be controlled through a smart phone or tablet (using Bluetooth low energy). Budgee™ is very cute and friendly, inspiring a deep bonding between its owner and the robot. You can name your Budgee™ and customize his eye color. Also, he comes with a number of security features to protect your items when out in public places.

Five Elements Robotics is taking pre-orders of Budgee™ on their website www.5erobotics.com for $1399 with a ship date of third quarter 2014. Also, Budgee™ is being offered at $1299 on Kickstarter through the end of January to help launch the project. Go to www.kickstarter.com and search for "Budgee" to support the making of this helpful robot.
