A new $30,000 robot called PatrolBot from ActivMedia Robotics debuted today at BuilConn Networked Buildings Forum in Dallas, Texas, today. The robot is designed to roll around buildings, checking Wi-Fi signal strength ("can you hear me now?"), air temperature, and other conditions. The bot navigates by itself through corporate hallways, and can find its way via another route if the main one is blocked. It can even receive visitors and give them tours of the building.
