Electronics Show (CES) in January 2024. Ballie is a small, spherical robot designed to assist users in their daily lives

It's equipped with artificial intelligence and the ability to recognize and respond to its users.

[{"selector":"#anim-c334585b-cfdb-4afc-9dcd-aa72a5897738 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(-11.347030494339727%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-4364b924-5aa8-4bba-bccb-be06b608b0f4","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-a3eafa18-7475-4fd5-9845-c39f6ba1cc9c","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.3333333333333333)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}]

Ballie is designed to be a companion, helping with tasks around the house and providing support.

The robot is intended to use various sensors and cameras to navigate its surroundings, understand user commands

and perform tasks autonomously. Its small size and spherical shape allow it to move easily and navigate through
