On November 10, 2026, consumer robot company Miaodong Technology announced that its world's first multi-terrain tracking robot Beni is officially on sale: the standard set is priced at 4,999 yuan, and the exploration set is priced at 5,799 yuan. Domestic users can purchase it through JD.com, and it will be shipped immediately. A month ago, Beni set a record for the largest crowdfunding amount in the history of consumer robots on the Kickstarter platform, raising more than US$5 million and 7,926 backers around the world. Today, it has moved from “crowdfunding hot product” to “spot sales” stage. For Miaodong Technology, which was founded less than two years ago, the launch of Beni is not only the launch of its first product for global users, but also the integration of cutting-edge robotics technology and professional imaging engineering to explore the first implementation scenario of embodied intelligence in the consumer market. From "people holding cameras" to "camera following people": robots open up a new space for imaging. If the existing consumer-level imaging hardware is divided according to "perspective × scene": action cameras occupy "first perspective × sports", drones occupy "aerial perspective × travel scenery", handheld pan-tilt cameras occupy "handheld perspective × daily Vlog", but in the quadrant of "ground perspective × sports and daily life", they have been blank for a long time. Beni is filling this gap - unlike equipment that relies on handheld, fixed installation or gimbal rotation, and unlike aerial tracking equipment, Beni combines the structure of a two-wheeled robot with professional imaging engineering, allowing the shooting equipment to move autonomously on the ground to achieve autonomous tracking on multiple terrains and angles. In sports scenarios, this capability brings a whole new experience. Runners no longer need to repeatedly set up equipment and adjust the camera position, and can record their running status through side or rear tracking; tennis enthusiasts can record their running status in a fixed panoramic view
