More newsfeed fun
Here's an article about a robot that's shaped like a ball and chases after people.
It resembles a large, black bowling ball, and moves by rolling along the ground.

In future, it could patrol factories and warehouses in place of human security guards.

If an intruder is spotted, the robot could sound an alarm, summon help – or roll in pursuit, taking pictures.
Why do I suspect its designers grew up watching this show? (Although that one is white and maybe a little bigger, so I could be wrong!)
