The Charmin 'RollBot' is a new robotic solution from the toilet paper brand that has been shown off at CES 2020 to help optimize the bathroom experience. The robot works by being summoned via smartphone to provide toilet paper in the event that there is none left upon using the facilities. The unit also features 'SmellSense' technology that can enter a restroom and let the user know if there are any lingering odors in the air.
The Charmin 'RollBot' was touted by Charmin Brand Director Rod Reinerman who said, "At Charmin, we’re always on a mission to bring people a better bathroom experience, and while that starts with the best TP, Charmin GoLab allows us to finally expand beyond just the seat. The concepts we’re bringing to CES are a playful way to showcase our relentless obsession with helping people Enjoy the Go now and into the future."
