Summary Report
Matic's Cues update adds voice and gesture control to its home cleaning robot - point at a mess and say the word, and it cleans it on its own.
- 01. Gesture detection uses five onboard cameras to see where you're pointing and locate the spot in 3D
- 02. Wake-word detection happens entirely on-device; voice commands are sent to Google's Gemini API to be understood
Matic has added Cues, voice and gesture control, to its home cleaning robot, after raising $115 million and spending nine years building what it calls the world's first genuinely intuitive home robot. Point at a mess and say "Hey Matic, clean this" and the robot hears you, sees where you're pointing, and cleans it on its own.
