Fans of beer pong will want to get their hands on a robot which is currently crowdfunding on Kickstarter.

Bruu, from San Francisco company Labruutories LLC, is a robot which takes the traditional drinking game up a notch by moving the cups around on a table.

The autonomous robots run for three hours on a single charge and are splash-proof. Sensors ensure it won’t fall off the table as you are playing.

In the Kickstarter funding video, director Eric Fragola says the original idea behind the robot was to help people connect without using their phones.

The crowdfund has a £14,255 goal, and has already raised £2500 with 23 days to go. If successful, the company hope to ship the robots by July 2018.

Those wishing to buy a robot can purchase one for around £21 or a pair for around £43, although there is limited availability.
