Mondo Robotics Introduces Beni, a 4K Camera Robot That Follows, Films, Jumps, and Tries Not to Become Drawer Clutter

Mondo Robotics is bringing Beni, a portable all-terrain camera robot, to Kickstarter with a pitch that’s easy to understand: it follows you, films you, and tries very hard not to become one more gadget that sits in a drawer. Beni can jump up to 10″, self-right after a fall, reach 17.9 mph, and record in 4K at 30 frames per second. It’s built for families, pet parents, solo creators, and athletes who want footage without having to hand someone a phone or set up a tripod. That alone is useful, though the robot-sidekick angle warrants healthy skepticism.

The TDM Neo tries something different by combining both, and it just might make you rethink how you use each.
