Roomba
Every year we get some sort of family gadget for Christmas. This year we got a Roomba. It seemed like something our gadget-obsessed household would enjoy — and might actually be useful too! So far we've let it clean the floors in a couple of rooms and hallways, It did a pretty good job, picking up quite a bit of dirt. And it was able to avoid most obstacles including the stairs.
The dog and cat don't pay much attention to the Roomba unless it heads directly for them. It would be cool to see the cat do something like this but she's not that adventurous. My son has discovered that the Roomba is hackable. Maybe we'll try some of them out at some point.
