Leave a comment

HONG KONG, April 29, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Roborock, developer of ultra-intelligent vacuum cleaners, today introduces its latest product innovation, the Roborock S6 MaxV. This premium addition to the company’s S-Series lineup is the first Roborock vacuum to include a stereo camera, allowing advanced obstacle avoidance technology called ReactiveAI. In addition, it’s the first product to be powered by a Qualcomm® APQ8053 processor chip from Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. – giving the MaxV cutting-edge on-device AI and connectivity performance. Its ReactiveAI enables the vacuum to not only recognize, but also avoid a range of common robot trapping obstacles, meaning people, especially parents and pet owners, can run their robotic vacuums with fewer worries than ever before.

“The seamless integration of ReactiveAI with our advanced laser technology allows the Roborock S6 MaxV to estimate the size and location of common obstacles and the best way to clean around them, setting the standard for our smartest navigational robot vacuum yet,” said Richard Chang, CEO of Roborock. “The powerful image processing technology behind it has led us to work with Qualcomm Technologies for the first time, a journey we are delighted to begin as we continue to imagine the next generation of robotic vacuums to navigate today’s world.”

This vision is echoed by Dev Singh, senior director of business development and head of autonomous robotics, drones and intelligent machines at Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. “The advancements that Roborock has made in the Home Robotics industry these past years are remarkable,” said Singh. “We’re thrilled to work with Roborock on their first product to launch with a stereo camera and a Qualcomm APQ8053 heterogeneous processor – powering the MaxV with cutting-edge on-device computation performance plus long-lasting battery life – in an effort to bring the next generation of innovative robot vacuums to life.”

Advanced Obstacle Recognition and Avoidance

  • Stereo camera – The Roborock S6 MaxV is equipped with a stereo camera on the front that captures detailed images at a maximum speed of 30 fps, allowing powerful image processing to recognize and avoid common obstacles including pet waste, scales (weighing), or shoes.
  • ReactiveAI – This obstacle avoidance technology utilizes a Convolutional Neural Network for image processing – trained on tens of thousands of images and powered by a fast and powerful Qualcomm® APQ8053 processor.

Roborock’s Most Powerful Robot Vacuum Yet

  • Powerful suction – With its 2500Pa of suction, which offers 25% more suction power than its predecessor the S6, the S6 MaxV is Roborock’s most powerful vacuum cleaner ever launched, now picking up even finer dirt from hard floors and reaching deeper into carpets.
  • Battery life – The S6 MaxV also has an extra-large 5200mAh battery – allowing it to clean for up to three hours (in quiet mode). Smart Top-Up allows the robot to recharge just enough to complete a large clean when needed.

Beyond Hardware

  • Multi-level maps – New clever software features are continually being introduced. In particular, multi-level mapping technology, a feature in high demand by customers, allows the robot to automatically recognize different levels of a home.
  • Every floor can now have its own set of No-Go Zones and No-Mop zones, and the already popular automatic room recognition feature – which automatically splits each level into rooms – can also be extended to multiple floors.

The Roborock S6 MaxV will be available in the US at the end of Q2 for $749 RRP.
In addition, the company also added the Roborock E4 to its E-Series lineup today. The robotic vacuum, available on Amazon for $299, features precision sensors and an internal map, enabling it to know where it has cleaned and what areas still remain.

The sales performance peaked in 2019 when the Huawei 4-socket servers topped the world in terms of shipment and sales volumes for that year. As a global strategic partner of Intel, Huawei has been adhering to a customer-centric approach and making unswerving commitments to the digital transformation of enterprises for the success of customers. A more intelligent data center is critical to fulfilling this commitment. To this end, Huawei is collaborating with Intel to provide high-performance, energy-efficient, secure, and reliable products and solutions.

This week we had the honour of having Joshua Vergara and Isa Rodriguez on the podcast! You may have seen them on the internet over the years.

Joshua Vergara runs his own tech and lifestyle YouTube channel, but you may recognize him from his days at Android Authority and for his current work at Pocketnow. He’s a veteran of the industry and has been making content on tech for many years. Aside from YouTube videos, Joshua Vergara also hosts multiple podcasts and delves into health and wellness via his social media platforms.

Isa Rodriguez is a tech Youtuber who has a unique view on tech. She takes everything we know about tech and approaches it with a fashionista’s eye. She brings a breath of fresh air in a niche that many have enjoyed over the years. She regularly pairs he tech reviews with out fit of the days and focuses on a lot of the features that everyone looks for, particularly the ladies.

This is her second time on the Tech & Tonic Podcast! She has joined us for a previous episode of the Tech & Tonic Podcast where we talked about cameras & smartphone cameras.

In the episode, we talked about one of the most exciting weeks we’ve had in the global tech scene in quite a while particularly of Motorola’s return to the flagship race with their new Motorola Edge and Edge+. Their return after a 3 year absence also brought up the question of whether they were still relevant and if consumers were still looking for flagships or affordable devices. We also spoke about some of the changes we’ve had to make with the world going into quarantine and also our must haves for working from home.

The episode was recorded as a livestream on Monday, 27 April 2020 on the techENT YouTube Channel. We are continuing our live streams throughout Malaysia’s Movement Control Order (MCO) period. We’re live at 11am every Monday.
