Home robots are not just in futuristic TV shows or movies anymore. How many people watched Rosie the robot maid on the Jetsons and wanted to have one too? Or how many saw Star Wars and wanted to bring R2-D2 home even if we also had to take C-3PO? We haven't gotten that advanced yet, but robot companions, personalized assistants, and home management aids have been steadily improving since Roomba first hit the store shelves in 2002.

Aido Social Robot are human-like running on artificial intelligence and some look like flying saucers, but they all make life easier for their human owners and many are as affordable as a new computer. There are robots that provide home security, one is a personal pool boy, and one will even play with your children.

Check out these nine home helper robots and see if one is right for you:
1. Ubtech Lynx

This humanoid robot helps Amazon Alexa come alive. Lynx has facial recognition technology and personalized greetings. Lynx can give you weather reports, play your favorite music and make to-do lists for you as well as remind you when you need to place an Amazon order. No sticky notes required.

3. Roomba by IRobot

Roomba has been around since 2002 but has improved a lot in the past 16 years. The latest model does a lot more than just vacuum. It can be controlled via Wi-Fi or linked to Amazon Alexa or Google voice-activated assistant. While the Roomba moves around your home cleaning floors, it can remember dirty places that need extra attention and it can plug itself into its charging station and go back to where it left off when the battery is recharged. How cool is that?

5. Worx Landroid

This robotic lawn mower will do the yard work for you. Landroid is designed to trim your lawn on a daily basis. It is a much quieter alternative to gasoline engine lawn mowers and can return to its charging station when its batteries are low or if it starts to rain. This is much better than paying a neighbor kid to mow your grass.
