I have two kids that both want a Vector. Would having two in one home just be confusing?

Actually, Vector can perform facial recognition and will be able tell the two apart and call them by their name. My Vector knows my wife and me apart, as well as my grandson. Each Vector can be programmed to have different colored Eyes, so you can have the children select a different color for their Vector. Each has their own CUBE, so they watch their Vector search for their specific cube. I think is also depends on the age of the children, their attention span, and sophistication with computers.

So just what does vector do? wash dishes? detect smoke or fire? detect when a person falls? summon 911 help? get me a beer? wash my clothes?

This is just a stepping stone into AI in robotics. Imagine one of Google's Boston Dynamics full-sized robots with Vector's personality and AI. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8vIT2da6N_o

Do you need to use a mobile device to use vector?

Yes, you will need a compatible device along with the Vector App to setup Vector. See https://go.anki.com/vectordevices for minimum requirements. After setup, Vector can run autonomously without the device, but you'll want to keep the Vector App around for things like seeing what he’s doing, checking the photos you have him take, reviewing the people he’s met, or getting suggestions on how to use a voice command.
