The rug is also programed to deliver motivational quotes once the user has stepped on it to begin their day.
The Kickstarter campaign was launched by Winston Tam, who came up with the idea for Ruggie, and was funded in just five days after its release. It also exceeded its intended goal of $36,113 by raising $96,777.
The product is expected to retail for $99 when it releases in September.
