>Double recharges to full capacity in about 2 hours with the provided AC to DC wall adapter.

So someone at the physical location has to plug the robot back in to charge? Doesn't it make more sense to have a docking station so that you can simply drive the robot into a position where it can charge itself?



Just saw this tweet :

>No charging dock yet, and the iPad talks over bluetooth, so it will need separate charging. Stuff is in the works, stay tuned!


Yeah the lack of a story for how to charge the thing without someone nearby is a deal breaker for a lot of use cases. If they sort that out reasonably I can see a few places I've worked at picking up some of these for remote teams.


Agree. That's the use case that I have in mind as well.
