Who says furniture needs to stay put? Lebanese industrial designer Nour Malaeb has developed a piece of robotic furniture that users can control with voice commands. The prototype, called Relay, can independently move around a space and can adjust its height, functioning as a caddy, a table and as an ottoman. Such robotic furniture could be particularly useful to those with physical disabilities, helping users carry items, limiting the need for painful or difficult physical tasks and even assisting people as they move around the house.
