Keecker
The Keecker is a miscellaneous home entertainment and security robot designed as a mobile projector, audio system, and sentry for indoor use. It autonomously navigates homes using SLAM mapping from its 360° fisheye camera, transforming any wall or ceiling into a screen with its 90° adjustable projector (1280x800 resolution) for movies, games, and streaming via Android TV (Netflix, Hulu, Spotify). Equipped with a 4.1 audio system (4x10W speakers + 50W subwoofer up to 117dB), it provides immersive sound. As a security companion, it patrols for motion detection, monitors temperature, humidity, air quality, CO2, noise via sensors, and sends real-time alerts. Voice-controlled via Google Home, Alexa, or app, it supports communication, environmental updates, and developer SDK for custom apps, revolutionizing home entertainment and monitoring without fixed hardware

Keecker Shuts Down After 6 Years, Robots Get Final OTA Update March 2026
Keecker, the wheeled home companion that blended projection entertainment with surveillance smarts, ceases operations after six years on the market. Owners of the roughly basketball-sized robot will receive one last over-the-air update in March 2026, wrapping up software support for its Android TV-based Keecker OS1. This move follows years of quiet deployments in smart homes, where the device patrolled rooms and streamed content autonomously. The closure marks a pivot in miscellaneous robotics, as developers shift focus to more scalable AI integrations amid rising competition from voice assistants and fixed projectors.

Q2. What are the main capabilities and key features of Keecker?
Keecker features a built-in projector, audio system, cameras for mapping and surveillance, and sensors for temperature, humidity, and motion detection. It supports voice control via Google Home and Alexa, plus app-based operation for streaming and patrols.
Q3. Who is Keecker built for, and which industries can benefit from it?
Keecker targets home users seeking integrated entertainment and security solutions. The manufacturer positioned it for residential applications, with potential use in small-scale home automation setups.
Q4. Is Keecker a commercial product or still a research prototype?
Keecker transitioned from prototype to a commercial product following its CES unveilings. As of 2018, units were available for purchase through the company's site, though the firm later ceased operations.
Q5. Is Keecker currently available for purchase, and when is it expected to ship?
Keecker was offered for pre-order and sale around 2018 via the manufacturer's website. The company shut down afterward, ending new availability; existing units operate locally without server-dependent features.
Q6. How does Keecker actually work in real-world environments?
Keecker uses wheels, 360-degree cameras, depth sensors, and infrared detectors to map homes and avoid obstacles. It moves autonomously to project media, monitor spaces, or report sensor data via app or voice commands.
Q7. When was Keecker announced or officially launched?
Keecker was unveiled at CES in 2016 and demonstrated further at CES 2018. The company announced U.S. availability in 2018, with sales reported shortly after.
Q8. How is Keecker different from other robots in the same category?
Unlike stationary smart displays, Keecker is mobile with a projector and multi-camera setup for room-to-room entertainment and surveillance. It integrates sensors for environmental data, distinguishing it from fixed home hubs.
Q9. Does Keecker require additional development or customization after purchase?
Keecker provided an SDK for developers to create apps, allowing customization. Post-shutdown, core functions like media playback persist locally, but server-based features such as remote access ceased.
Q10. What is the future roadmap or planned upgrades for Keecker?
Keecker announced OTA updates through 2019, with the final one in March enabling server-independent operation. The company shut down, halting further development or upgrades.
