Figla cleaning robot

Cleaning robot

Cleaning-obsessed robot fan, Figla, has created the ultimate multi-purpose cleaning machine. When I say ultimate, I really mean a talking vacuum cleaner. Using a combination of its numerous sensors (infrared, gyro, ultrasonic, as well as a normal camera), the machine can detect rubbish while judging uneven surfaces and obstacles. Probably couldn’t avoid a good kick in the pipes though. Although, I don’t know why you’d want to do that, it’s only a poor robot hoover. See it in action and judge for yourself whether or not violence is required.

The robot has two power modes (economy and full), with a battery life of 1 and 2 hours respectively, and can clean 1,000 square metres within a single hour.

    […] Ok, I know the vacuum robot market is starting to get a little saturated lately, but that still doesn’t mean we shouldn’t announce a new one when it comes out! Especially one as cool as Figla […]
