list of thing that Robot vacuum Right now can continue to grow. They can create an accurate map of your home so they don’t bump into anything. They can empty themselves and recharge themselves. They can reach under your couch to clean up the crud. Many have dual mopping-vacuuming functionality to remove your dog’s muddy footprints.
One thing is most robot vacuums Currently can’t You are picking things off the floor. Running a robot vacuum can save you a lot of time and energy, but it often involves spending 10 to 20 minutes frantically running around trying to disable robot bubbie traps by removing cables, shoelaces, and hair ties.
This year, Roborock won the race to launch a commercial robot vacuum with an extendable arm that can pick up small messes in its path, thus becoming the robot butler of your dreams. The Roborock Saros Z70 has this extended arm with grasping pincers that the company calls Omnigrip. I saw and screamed.

Spin me right round
In my testing, a robot vacuum is only as useful as its navigation system; All the suction power in the world won’t help you if it can’t find its way out from under your couch. I’ve found Roborock’s navigation systems to be consistently pretty accurate. The Saros Z70 uses a combination of sensors for navigation. There are 3D time-of-flight sensors to measure distance between objects and AI-powered RGB cameras to detect obstacles and determine when to deploy Omnigrip. (The arm is folded and stored in a small bay above the vacuum when not in use.)
The Omnigrip has five separate axes, so it can twist and turn both horizontally and vertically to precisely grip items in its tiny pincer grips. At the moment, it weighs less than 300 grams, or a little less than a pound – so, it can take items like tissues, socks or even a sandal.
To use Omnigrip, Roborock customers activate it through the app. As the Saros Z70 moves through your home, it detects potential objects it might pick up while cleaning, and then moves around to pick them up and remove them when it’s done. In the app, you can choose the areas in your home where Omnigrip works, how it should behave, and where it should place things.
