Saros’ Roborock Line Features AI Assisted Robotic Arm

At this year’s CES, Roborock bet more on artificial intelligence. Their vacuums are for those who are tired of rolling the dice on robovacs that won’t get out from under the bed, and those who are tired of supposed AI in things that are full of hot air. The new Roborock robots aren’t cleaning tools, they’re smart home assistants.

Roborock’s showstopper at this year’s CES is the Saros series, which features the first commercial robot on the market with a robotic arm. “Saros” is an astronomical term of 18 years and 11 days used to predict solar and lunar eclipses. Saros vacuums use data to create amazing 3D models of your space, respond better to real problems (useful when you’re away) and adjust suction power during quiet times (useful when you’re at home). The more these automated machines clean, the smarter they are.

Saros Z70: A vacuum that can lend a hand—or an arm

The Pictures of the Z70 it is 8 cm very narrow, which allows it to roll under the seats. Like its cousin Roborock, it is Curv lineThe Z70 uses the AdaptiLift Chassis, raising its wheels and raising its frame by 10 mm to go over doors and carpets. It also has a suction power of 22,000Pa, a dual anti-tangle system that prevents hair from interfering with the performance and movement of StarSight.

But that’s not what got everyone at CES talking. What sets the Z70 apart is its robotic arm, the first of its kind for a mass-produced vacuum cleaner. Known as OmniGrip, this arm can hold objects such as socks, small towels, tissues and shoes that weigh less than 300 grams. You can use the Obstacle Definition feature in the program to detect 50 different objects, tailoring the vacuum’s detection capabilities to your unique home. Safety, of course, comes first: The handle is not strong enough to hold your pet, and the lock has a child lock and safety stop button.

Here’s how it works: The Z70 moves through the room to clean and identify clutter, then returns to move obstacles and clean previously blocked areas. It can repeat three times across the room to move an object to another location, such as a laundry basket or a toy chest.

CNET spent hours looking at the Z70 his doing is unanimously voted Best of CES for a smart home or home tech product. A hand rising from the top of the void reminded us of a scene from science fiction. The CNET group rated together Saros Z70 But this is not an imaginary future: Z70 is expected to be launched in the first half of 2025.

Saros 10R: More data on deep cleaning

The The price of 10R it has a lot in common with the Z70, except for, you know, the cool robotic arm. Both vacuums are equipped with StarSight Autonomous System 2.0 navigation and obstacle detection technology. StarSight uses a traditional Laser Distance Sensor (LDS) system for dual 3D Time of Flight technology and an AI-powered RGB camera.

This means that the vacuum is collecting a lot of data while it is working. The increased amount of data at the highest level – 21 times that of the LDS system – helps create a more accurate and rich 3D map of the room and the ability to perform better. see obstacles in cleaning. Through machine learning, the vacuum can detect 108 obstacles.

VertiBeam Lateral Obstacle Avoidance measures the height and distance between the vacuum and objects on its side to prevent it from crashing into walls or getting caught in hanging ropes. It does this by combining a wide beam laser on top of its forward pointing laser. Both the Z70 and 10R use the Multifunctional Dock 4.0 which produces a vacuum in just 2.5 hours. The company expects the model to be available early this year.

Saros 10: It is low without action

The saro 10 enhances the capabilities of the popular S8 MaxV Ultra by introducing the RetractSense Navigation System. The LDS module, which looks like a cap on top of the vacuum, retracts to slide down the lower parts. The vacuum shrinks to eight centimeters high, like the Z70 and 10R. When the module is retracted, the Wide-Angle Vision Module ensures that the sensor maintains a 100-degree field of view, and then wakes up when it exits the base so that there is no lag on the map. The Saros 10 also uses lasers to navigate on tilted surfaces and avoid scratches.

Saros 10’s Reactive AI 3.0 uses triple front-mounted lighting, along with an RGB camera and Vertibeam light, to reduce blind spots and increase response time. The VibraRise 4.0 mopping system vibrates to clean the area – 4,000 swipes per minute – and is smart enough to pull out the mop when it’s not needed to keep your carpets clean but not wet. This vacuum uses the RockDock Ultra 2.0, which can also charge the vacuum in just 2.5 hours. 10 will be launched in January 2025.
