    Enabot ROLA PetPal

    Robot Pet Pal

    From the CES 2023 Innovation Award Honoree, Enabot is back with the ROLA PetPal that gives your pets entertainment when you're not home—perfect for when you're on vacation and missing your pets!

    It includes high-def cameras; whole-house mobility; automatic recharging; AI-enabled pet recognition; real-time, two-way voice communication; interactive toys; and an automated treat dispenser.

    The interactive toys include a play stick, a laser game, and a rolling ball. With the remote-controlled treat dispenser, one click is all it takes to reward your pets. Plus, the ROLA App features 9 actions and 7 sound effects that provide round-the-clock entertainment.

    ROLA PetPal offers Cloud+ Subscription services for 24/7 cloud playback (~$5/month), smart alerts, and daily pet vlogs.

    ROLA is offered in tiered models, so the basic version offers everything but the interactive toys. But you can buy the model that offers the toys with it, or you can buy the toy module separately for $35.

    As the year draws to a close, we at New Equipment Digest take a moment to step away from our usual deep dives into manufacturing innovations and emerging technologies to celebrate the art of gift-giving. While we spend most of our pages exploring the latest industrial equipment and cutting-edge manufacturing solutions, our annual gift guide is a cherished tradition that lets us cast a wider net.

    This year's guide speaks to the multifaceted personalities of our readers. We've organized our selections into four categories that reflect the diverse interests of modern professionals: gifts for practical minds who appreciate efficiency and utility, tech enthusiasts always hunting for the next breakthrough, wellness gurus focused on personal optimization, and weekend warriors who bring the same passion and precision to their personal pursuits as they do to their professional lives.

    Whether you're shopping for family, a colleague, a client, or treating yourself, we've got something that's sure to impress.

    We've linked the slides below, so if you want, you can jump straight to something that catches your eye. Editors' picks are marked with an asterisk.
