    A different kind of robot. This one brings you toilet paper exactly when you need it!

    At CES 2020, Charmin via their Charmin GoLab, introduced the first-ever innovation showcase focused on helping people Enjoy the Go - three cheeky, never-before-seen conceptual prototypes made to deliver a better bathroom experience from start to flush. According to Charmin people use the bathroom 6-7 times a day, and spend on average 156 hours a year on the toilet. Yet, in a world that’s ever-evolving with new technology, the bathroom is basically the same as it was 100 years ago. That is, until now. Here's Charmin’s vision for a better bathroom experience - but expect it soon, or more likely, ever! (Most reporter felt it was a way to get publicity and worked! Here are 2 of the 3 concept devices.

    RollBot is a first-of-its-kind robot that, when controlled with a smartphone using Bluetooth, delivers a fresh roll of Charmin to you so you won’t have to be left in a bind ever again. Its futuristic design uses self-balancing technology to give it a more bear-morpheus look.

    SmellSense – An electronic sensor monitoring system that lets you plan ahead and check how the bathroom smells without having to experience it yourself. It is calibrated to detect carbon dioxide or hydrogen sulfide found in a *toot* or *two*. SmellSense notifies you via a GO/NO GO display on the status of the stench and when it’s safe to go in.
