The robot vacuum cleaner "Dyson 360 Eye" was announced by Dyson. It is a product that makes up for the shortcomings of conventional robot vacuum cleaners.


The biggest feature of "Dyson 360 Eye" is the 360-degree panoramic camera attached to the top of the main unit. This allows you to look around 360 degrees, grasp the situation, and accurately identify your position using trigonometry. Divide the room into a grid of 3 meters square and clean it regularly.


The movement of the vacuum cleaner itself is different from the conventional type, and it operates in a "spiral" shape rather than randomly. Cleaning can be done in a shorter time because you do not have to go back and forth between the places where cleaning has been completed.


It is the caterpillar, not the wheels, that moves the body. It has a high ability to traverse obstacles and reduces the number of problems that are common to robot vacuum cleaners, such as "the battery runs out without being able to overcome steps".


Dyson's original "Cyclone Technology" is installed in the suction part. As a result, the "Dyson 360 Eye" has become "the most attractive robot vacuum cleaner," Dyson claims.


The function that the conventional robot vacuum cleaner has to automatically return to the charging station is also installed in the "Dyson 360 Eye".


In addition, an app "Dyson Link" that allows you to manage "Dyson 360 Eye" on your smartphone is also available. From the app, you can set the cleaning schedule and so on.


"Dyson 360 Eye" is scheduled to go on sale in the spring of 2015. The price is undecided at this time.
