This isn’t too damning, though, since sand isn’t a very common household debris (unless you’re lucky enough to live near a beach). What information is available has come via The Verge, which discovered that Dyson had filed details of a new product with the FCC. On the filed documents, the new robot dyson robot vacuum vacuum cleaner is just called the RBO3. The FCC filing could indicate that the brand is ready to launch the machine in the US. Control of the 360 Heurist vacuum cleaner is through the Dyson Link app, which is true of all Dyson’s smart products, from its air purifiers to its Lightcycle task lamps.
These tank tracks also eliminate the risk of this vacuum cleaner getting trapped in carpets or being thrown off course by small obstacles. Using sensors, the s9+ can find dirt and dust on hard floors and in carpets – even in hard-to-find places. It has a specially angled corner brush to reach those deep spaces, and the rubber-treaded brushes stay in complete contact with the floor to maximise suction.
In addition to its digital V2 motor that Dyson says “spins at up to 78,000 revolutions per minute,” the way a robot vacuum sees rooms has a huge impact on its ability to clean. There’s no reason why this concept wouldn’t work so long as it was designed correctly. It would expand the robot vacuum market as well, providing a solution to those with more than one level in their home. Navigation is generally very good, too – this robot rarely became stuck in tests, particularly when set up correctly with the app. Its tank tracks prove more than up to the challenge of dealing with rugs and even flooring at different heights. Dyson has also revamped the controls and information dial on top.
We did not have the chance to see it avoid obstacles, so we can’t vouch for how well the software works. Add an app to your Android or iOS device to help with scheduling and monitoring the vacuuming of your home. It adapts to and memorizes your floor plan, thanks to Imprint Smart Mapping. Even if shark cordless you pick it up and move it, it will get back to its original route. Thanks to the Clean Base Automatic Dirt Disposal, it empties itself at the dock which can hold up to 60 days’ worth of debris. The Roomba i7+’s battery lasts for 90 minutes, and it takes three hours to charge it to 100 percent.
So unless you run the robot vacuum when you’re not at home, it’s going to get in the way and could potentially be a tripping hazard. Prior to The Verge’s finding, rumours had begun to swirl about the features that might appear in the next Dyson robot vacuum. The unnamed robovac comes in the same striking nickel blue color as its predecessor, and has tank treads and a detachable dust bin, just like Dyson’s previous forays into this product category. It also looks like the device has the Heurist’s 360-degree camera with LED lighting ring.
