Built on strong values and a passion for innovation, the manufacturer Roborock, specialized in intelligent cleaning robots, wishes to improve our daily lives with unique and autonomous products. Successful bet ? Absolutely !
At the origins, expertise and strong convictions
It’s in 2014, at the initiative of Richard Chang, that the Roborock adventure is born. With 12 years of experience in the most prestigious companies on the planet (Microsoft and Tencent to name a few), this new technology enthusiast sets himself a big challenge one day: to create the smartest robot vacuum cleaner ever !
Convinced that artificial intelligence will revolutionize the world of domestic robots, Richard Chang calls on talented engineers and programmers to carry out his quest. And it was in 2016, in partnership with Xiaomi, that Roborock launched its first intelligent robot vacuum cleaner, the Mi Home, which sold more than 2 million copies. The first of a long series of devices that also performed well.
This success, Roborock owes it not only to products that are as intelligent as they are original, but also and above all to the convictions that make it a brand consumers can trust. Richard Chang was particularly keen to ensure that user needs drive the manufacturing process of each of Roborock’s robot vacuums. To offer suitable solutions and ultimately reliable devices, the firm is constantly listening to its customers and the issues they raise.
Building on this feedback is also a way for Roborock to ensure that their intelligent robots are always moving in the right direction, while refining their autonomy. Because the Asian company is convinced of it, a good product must limit interactions with its users as much as possible in order to allow them to focus on what is really important to them: their daily passions !
Innovation as a keystone
Beyond this human-first philosophy, Roborock has also distinguished itself with AI-based technologies. that make the cleaning of our apartments and houses simple, efficient and transparent. Among the recent innovations acclaimed by users of the brand, we find:
The automatic dump station Empty Wash Fill Dock capable of collecting dust from your robot cleaner and refilling its water container, while cleaning its mop. Its other main assets: it is equipped with a filtration system that captures up to 99.7% of allergenic particles, and it holds up to seven weeks of dust which greatly reduces overall maintenance time. Obstacle avoidance technology ReactiveAI® 2.0 which uses advanced sensors and a 3D structured light mapping system to recognize and navigate your belongings while cleaning, whatever the light. The robot vacuum can even recognize a room by the simple texture of its floor. The little extra: with the Roborock application, you can view your home and furniture in 3D and directly select the area you want to clean. Sonic vibration cleaning VibraRise® (up to 3000 revolutions per minute) cleans your floors in just a few minutes, 30% more efficiently than traditional robot mops. And all this while respecting our old carpets since the mop rises when the sensors detect a non-water-washable surface. Enough to launch a cleaning program with your eyes closed!
Proof of the impactful nature of its creations, the Chinese company has been rewarded many times in recent years, for example the Red Dot Design Award. Its Ultra-Dock automatic dump station also received the innovation award at CES 2022. Finally, Roborock proudly ranks first in the ranking of TIME Magazine’s 200 Best Inventions of 2022 with the new S7 MaxV Ultra.
The ultimate robot vacuum
It is also difficult not to dwell on the S7 MaxV Ultra, the latest flagship in Roborock’s range of smart robot vacuums. A model that has everything to become your new favorite cleaning companion. And for good reason: it relies on the revolutionary features mentioned above (Empty Wash Fill Dock, ReactiveAI® 2.0 and VibraRise® at the top of the line) to make your interior shine with formidable efficiency.
You will even quickly forget its existence over the days! Its autonomous functionalities, associated with its docking station which automatically empties, cleans and replenishes the robot with waterin fact limit the maintenance of the product to the strict minimum, allowing you to indulge in other more rewarding activities
Because that’s Roborock’s main goal: to create products that help us focus on the only thing that really matters: ourselves. Will it continue on this path in 2023 with new product categories?
