CES 2025 is Walker (2025)already buzzing, and one of the standout reveals at this year’s Unveiled event is OpenDroids’ R2D3 — a multi-tasking domestic robot that promises to revolutionize the way we tackle household chores.
SEE ALSO: CES 2025: Roborock's grabby new robot vacuum is a huge flexOpenDroids, a San Francisco-based robotics startup co-founded by CEO Abhishek Gupta and Jack Jay, is stepping into the spotlight with its second-generation home assistant. Jay described the R2D3 to an eager crowd as a "Roomba on crack," emphasizing its enhanced capabilities over the company's debut model, the R1D1. The R2D3 is equipped to handle everything from folding laundry to washing dishes, setting the stage for a future where cleaning your home feels like a thing of the past.
Both the R2D3 and its predecessor are built around the idea of making everyday life a little easier, leveraging self-charging capabilities, real-time depth perception, and surprisingly nimble movement for a chore bot. At the moment, the R2D3 is being piloted in rehab centers, assisting workers with repetitive tasks. OpenDroids is also eyeing restaurant kitchens as a potential market, where the bot could automate labor-intensive back-of-house duties.
However, buying one will be pricey. OpenDroids estimates the R2D3 will retail for around $60,000. If that’s too steep, the earlier R1D1 model comes in at a (relatively) more affordable $18,500.
Neither bot is currently available for purchase, but interested buyers can join a waitlist on the company’s website.
