Home Appliance ASCII Rumba Recognizes the largest update furniture and cleans only under the sofa or table

Hello Ryo Morita, who is in charge of ASCII housekeeping childcare.The other day, when I was casually looking at the rumba being cleaning, I suddenly changed my course and ran here.It's as if the top camera sensor noticed this gaze.It may be that the human sensor is starting to break in an endless home life, but maybe that will happen.

On August 26, Irobot Japan announced a major update for apps that can be used in robot vacuum cleaners.If you say so, it seems that you will go through "Ho -ー app update", but this time the atmosphere is different.The company positioned it as the "largest digital update in history," and the company's founder Colin Angle CEO was named "IROBOT GENIUS HOME INTELLIGENCE."What is a genius?

● To recognize furniture automatically

"IROBOT HOME Version 5 5 5."0" has changed dramatically, and the "Clean" button is a controlled panel screen with a button that uses various functions from a screen like a blast switch.Various new functions are added according to the design change.

● New function 1.Instructions and areas for creating and cleaning a partial cleaning area 2.Create and save cleaning routines as "favorite" 3.Schedule management of "IMPRINT link" that links Rumba and Bravaba 4.The schedule function to start cleaning when you leave the house 5.Improvement of smart map function 6.Proposal of recommended cleaning according to the user

The biggest new function is a "smart map" that specifies the room to clean, and is a "part (area) cleaning" function that allows you to select where you want to clean.

"Partial cleaning" that specifies and cleans the area

In addition, the "furniture recognition" function that recognizes furniture using a camera sensor on the top model, such as Rumba S9+and Rumba i7+, registers and cleans it as an object.This is the first furniture recognition function in the robot vacuum cleaner industry.

Clean under the dining table

Let the under the sofa clean

Technically, the image data obtained by the camera sensor is composed of the image data accumulated in the cloud, and the map is written as "furniture" on the map.Accuracy is also increased according to the frequency of use.At first, the dining table, chairs, sofas, and kitchen counters are automatically recognized, and we plan to increase the number of objects in line with the software update every three months.

For example, after a meal, you can have a rumba clean under the dining table, or have a blurred juice in front of the kitchen counter wiped.Until now, a little garbage and dirt that have been wiped with a stick vacuum cleaner or a floor lashed sheet can be used.Smart speakers are also supported, so you can clean them with "OK Google, Cleaning the Sofa".

● The place you want to clean is "Favorites"

The next big change is "Favorites".You can now specify the area to be cleaned and register with a name (currently only the alphabet can be used for the name, up to 24 characters).The registered favorite can be used by tapping from the app like a shortcut button.Combined with the furniture recognition function, for example, you can register under the dining table as a shortcut.

Register the cleaning area for "Favorites" and operate with one tap

Favorites can be assigned on days and time.For example, you can register a routine that cleans the area around the cage while taking a dog for a walk.An ilobot person in charge of an 8 -month -old daughter has made a shortcut called "baby food" that cleans the kitchen and the under the dining table after eating baby food, and shouts "baby food!"。

In addition, the application can work with IFTTT and smart homes to form a routine such as "start cleaning when you leave the house".

Furniture recognition and favorite functions can only be used for Rumba S9+, Rumba i7/i7+, and Blur Budget M6 with high -performance chips and camera sensors.

● Proposal for places with many code, "Would you like to prohibit invasion?"

Using machine learning, it also has a recommendation and proposal function related to cleaning.

For example, if you recognize where you often cause an error, such as a place with a lot of cables, you will suggest that you do not set it in an invading area.

Proposal of places with many code as "should I make it a prohibition area?"

On the schedule, based on the cleaning history, when you realize that you are always cleaning on Tuesday and Thursday night, you suggested, "Would you like to add it to the schedule?"

We also propose a cleaning schedule

In addition, based on the location information of the user, it also has a function that proposes the frequency of cleaning from the pollen season and the period of pets hair growth.

Even cleaning during pollen season will be proposed

The proposal function can be used at Rumba 900 and Rumba E5/600, etc., only in the case of invading entry where camera sensors are required.

● I'm worried about future updates

The aim of the iLobot Genius Project is to understand the user and make it unique to that person.The biggest point of attention is the future update.I'm very worried about what functions will be added once every three months.

For example, Panasonic's robot vacuum cleaner "Rulo" has a "OTOMO function" that recognizes the user's feet with a sensor, follow the user, and cleans the specified location.The "furniture recognition" function installed by Rumba this time uses a camera sensor, so in principle it can detect something that moves like a person.Updates that follow the user like Lulo, or, on the contrary, to clean up the user's feet, can be an update.

Rumba with high -performance eyes may eventually know your life, and may be better than anyone.At that time, rather than asking Rumba for cleaning, the number of times you are called "to clean" and answer "Yeah" will increase.It is likely that living while feeling the glance of Rumba, who has become a living together, will eventually be normal.
