Most of those are basically expensive toys($5000 for a seal robot that tracks eyes and flips its tail), and the ones that arent mostly fancy toys, are $$$$ prototypes. Not saying they are useless, or wont end up being badass and common some day. Saying it will be a LOOOONG time before there is a robot maid in every home.
