This is a photo of the new S8 Pro Ultra model. It is in the development stage, but still in the early stages of testing.
\r\n\r\nWhat is this thing?
\r\n\r\nThis is a robot, but not a normal robot. This is a smart robot. It is a next-generation
This spring, new models of robot vacuums have a camera that gives them the ability to locate their charging station, as well as map out the space they are cleaning. These are the most advanced robot vacuums. The Roomba i7 is the latest and greatest from iRobot, and uses a combination of sensors, computer vision, and deep learning to keep track of the room it is cleaning, then send real-time updates to the app.
When robot vacuums first launched, they were clumsy and happily bumped into furniture and walls to try to find their way around while cleaning. They could only vacuum, with limited suction power and efficiency, and came with a small base that served only for charging.
