A robotic vacuum cleaner whose mop cleans itself

Improved moping, smarter dock or obstacle recognition with artificial intelligence. All this will be offered by the new Roborock S7 MaxV Ultra robotic vacuum cleaner, which was announced by the Forbes portal.

Top equipment at a high price

The S7 MaxV Ultra model delivers the highest suction power of all other Roborock vacuum cleaners, namely 5,100 Pa. It also has larger containers for dirt and water to handle vacuuming without interruption for an average of 180 minutes. After mapping the household, it will be recharged when the battery capacity is low and then it will automatically continue working. It can be charged from zero to one hundred in less than four hours.

It also lacks the ability to avoid obstacles, even in the dark, which is taken care of by an RGB camera, a scanner that uses light to recognize 3D objects and a new NPU (Neural processing unit). When vacuuming, it can even identify floor materials and then recommend the ideal method and intensity of cleaning. In addition to the vacuuming mode, it also offers a moping mode, while the new ability to detect floor materials ensures that carpets will not be washed.

Sales will begin in the second quarter of this year, but be prepared to pay a hefty sum. The suggested retail price is set at $ 1,399.

Improved dock with water containers

Along with the vacuum cleaner, the manufacturer also introduced a sophisticated dock that can handle much more than just charging and automatically emptying dirt from the device. In addition to a transparent dust and dirt tank, it also houses two water tanks. One is used to fill the water tank in the vacuum cleaner and to clean its mop, while the other will automatically empty the used water.
