Ten years ago, you could only see nimble, all-terrain robots used by the military or advanced robotics labs. Today, even people like us can have one if they have the money. But there are more options now. For instance, Mondo Robotics developed Beni, an all-terrain camera robot that can capture high-quality video and zip around quickly on any terrain. It’s designed to act as your personal, autonomous videographer. Now on Kickstarter, Beni follows you, frames your shots, and records your adventures so you can stay focused on what matters.
Unleashing All-Terrain Camera Robot Autonomy
Beni stands out for its mobility. Weighing just 3.86 pounds, it’s built to follow you wherever you go. Whether you’re running a trail or practicing your tennis swing, Beni can keep up at speeds up to 17.9 mph. It navigates around obstacles and jumps over rough terrain, so it stays focused on the action.
Camera Robot Cinematic Smart Filming
Beni’s camera captures 4K video at 30 fps and 1080p slow motion at 100 fps. On-board smart tracking keeps your shots framed, so you don’t have to adjust angles yourself. After your session, you can pick your favorite clips, and Beni’s auto-editing feature creates a highlight reel ready to share. You can also personalize Beni with accessories like different ear colors.
Intuitive Control and Complete Privacy
For moments when you want to take the wheel, Beni offers a “Pilot Mode” that lets you drive the robot and capture shots from a first-person perspective. Alternatively, the included Motion Tracker lets you direct Beni’s movements and keep the camera locked on your location, even if you step out of sight.
Privacy is a major priority. Unlike devices that require a constant internet connection, Beni processes all of its core features entirely on-device. Footage is saved directly to its 32GB of internal storage or a microSD card. The only time the robot connects to the cloud is if you opt in for AI-assisted editing.
The Future of Personal Filming
Beni offers 1.5 hours of battery life per charge, which can be extended to over 4.5 hours with easy-to-swap backup batteries. It’s available on Kickstarter now for a Super Early Bird price of $549, a 36% discount. Mondo Robotics is making professional-level personal filming more accessible.
