Summary
$549 early pledges opened July 8 for Mondo Robotics' Beni, a sub-4-pound camera robot that quickly surpassed its Kickstarter funding target.
Beni is pitched as a portable all-terrain filming robot that follows users autonomously, avoids obstacles and climbs stairs by jumping up to 10 cm and self-righting after tips.
The robot shoots 4K at 30 fps, 3K at 60 fps and 1080p slow motion at 100 fps, while reaching speeds of up to 18 mph.
Mondo says Beni is its first product; expected retail pricing is $799, with shipping offered to markets including the UK, Canada and Australia.
