Avoid troubles while driving with cutting-edge 3D object avoidance technology Ecovacs Japan launches new robot vacuum cleaner

Ecovac Japan, a home robot manufacturer, has developed 3D object avoidance (True Detect) technology that applies 3D structured light technology from the T8 series and the latest model of automatic garbage collector developed by the company. DEEBOT OZMO T8+, a robot vacuum cleaner equipped with a collection stand (Auto-Empty), will be released on Monday, June 29th.

This product is equipped with object avoidance technology that applies 3D structured light technology, which is also used for the face recognition function of smartphones, and detects the height, width, and shape of obstacles in three dimensions, and drives. It is possible to avoid various troubles inside. And the automatic garbage collection stand (Auto-Empty) that can automatically collect garbage from the robot vacuum cleaner body and can store about 30 cups of garbage in the dust box, and the OZMO that can adjust the amount of water and wipe it at the same time as sucking. A mop system is installed as standard, making daily floor cleaning even easier. In addition, the DEEBOT OZMO T8 AIVI is also equipped with the mapping system True Mapping, which greatly improves the mapping performance.

The features of this product are as follows.

The product is equipped with a patented 3D object avoidance (True Detect) that applies 3D structured light technology. A camera and projector are combined to project a predetermined striped pattern of light onto an object, and the distortion of the light is analyzed to detect depth information of the object over a wide range. By detecting objects of various heights and shapes in a room in 3D, interior accessories such as pet feces, children's toys, and Christmas trees can be detected in three dimensions to prevent collisions.

In addition, compared to the DEEBOT OZMO 930, there were 20 troubles while driving, such as cords such as power cords and USB cables, the hem of curtains, etc. getting tangled in the brush of the robot vacuum cleaner, and being stuck in a narrow space. % to 40% reduction.

Furthermore, since it detects and avoids low steps (2 centimeters or more), it can also prevent falling from low steps such as the entrance of an apartment building.

This product comes standard with an automatic garbage collection stand (Auto-Empty) that eliminates the hassle of throwing away garbage. The automatic garbage collector developed by the company in 2010 has been further evolved, making it possible to collect about 30 cups worth of garbage. When the garbage in the paper pack of the automatic garbage collection stand is full, the special application "ECOVACS HOME" will notify you (smart notification function), so you can use it without worrying about when to throw away garbage.

And this time, the company has newly developed its own dual dust route, and has two suction ports for collecting dust from the robot vacuum cleaner. With this design, the dust in the robot vacuum cleaner dust box can be efficiently sucked from both sides of the stand. The sealed eco paper pack installed in the stand of this product uses an H10 grade HEPA filter. It catches more than 99% of fine particles such as dust and mold without escaping.

Uses an optical D-ToF sensor. The distance is accurately calculated using the "round trip time of flight of light" from the time a pulse of light hits the wall to the time it is reflected and received. It enables 360-degree omnidirectional detection of objects with a radius of up to 10 meters.

The True Mapping system that uses this sensor is a patented technology independently researched and developed by Ecovacs. Compared to conventional laser mapping, it measures the distance to walls, the position and shape of furniture at high speed, shortens the measurement time by 1/3, and improves map creation accuracy by 4 times compared to DEEBOT OZMO 950. . Furthermore, by adopting a completely sealed design, the failure rate of the conventional laser irradiation part is reduced, and the service life is extended.

The product is equipped with the patented OZMO mop system independently researched and developed by the company. With an electronically controlled water pump, you can select from 4 levels of water volume adjustment with the app. To wipe with water while uniformly permeating the mop with water. When the mop plate is attached, the function automatically recognizes that it will be cleaned in wet cleaning mode. In addition, it is said that 99.26% of the bacteria on the soles of the feet on the floor can be removed by wiping with water at the same time as suctioning.
