“With over 22 years of innovative technology development, ECOVACS ROBOTICS has driven the transition from traditional methods of home cleaning care to automated home care,” said David Qian, CEO of ECOVACS ROBOTICS, “Our new DEEBOT OZMO T8 family gives consumers what they have been looking for, a high-end intelligent solution for a hassle-free cleaning experience.”

Latest Optimized AIVI™ Technology – Sophisticated Obstacle Avoidance

With the latest optimized AIVI™ Technology, the DEEBOT OZMO T8 AIVI can recognize and avoid obstacles 200% faster with a predicted 60% reduction in entanglement rate compared to existing AIVI products, relying on machine learning to adapt to the user’s unique home environment. It also intelligently suggests extra cleaning based on its record of spots avoided, to offer a more thorough cleaning performance.

The DEEBOT OZMO T8 AIVI can automatically recognize objects including shoes, charging docks, cables, cloths, and socks to avoid obstacles and prevent the robot from getting stuck.

As the industry’s most intelligent robotic vacuum cleaner, further advanced AI-powered functions will be offered via OTA (Over the Air) Technology in the coming months, including automated detection of U-shaped chairs and rugs. For U-shaped chairs, the robot will make a single attempt to pass them, and for rugs the robot will automatically adjust roller brush speed to avoid getting stuck.

First-adopt Aerospace-standard dToF Detection Technology[1] Powers Brand-new TrueMapping™ to Enable Precise and Customized Cleaning

Compared with the previous generation of Smart Navi® 3.0, the TrueMapping™ laser-based mapping and navigation technology can detect a double distance and has four-fold precision to detect objects as small as two millimeters. With the new technology, DEEBOT OZMO T8 AIVI can now scan, map, and plan an efficient cleaning path in a large house faster and more precisely.

TrueMapping™ Mapping and Navigation Technology also offers users a more customized and intelligent cleaning experience. The DEEBOT OZMO T8 AIVI has Multi-floor Mapping Technology that can scan and store multiple maps of different levels of a user’s home. For first time cleaning, the robot automatically divides the whole cleaning environment into multiple areas based on the floorplan. Once the robot has identified the appropriate map, it can customize its cleaning process to each level. Furthermore, the upgraded Virtual Boundary™ can proactively provide recommendations for virtual walls around areas where it may easily become stuck, with the user only needing to click the confirmation on the ECOVACS Home App to accept the recommendations.

A Reliable Cleaning Partner with Powerful Vacuuming and Mopping Capabilities

The DEEBOT OZMO T8 AIVI provides powerful vacuuming and mopping capabilities, that can both be completed in one go. The four-step cleaning offers efficient vacuuming that won’t even miss dust in 4mm deep cracks. This new family member also includes an interchangeable enhanced mopping module featuring the brand-new OZMO™ Pro Mopping System, enabling robots to deal with stubborn stains 5X efficient than human[2] by using electrically powered high-frequency vibration, and a unique fine mopping mode comparable to an electronic mop, which makes it the most powerful mopping ability in its kind[3]. Alternatively, ECOVACS’ signature mopping technology still be available with its OZMO™ Mopping System, featuring an electronically controlled water pump and 240 ml large water tank, ensures long-lasting mopping efficiency by tackling dirt and dried liquid to offer a smooth and consistent clean. What’s more, the OZMO™ Mopping System can remove over 99%[4] of bacteria based on the test report from a Japanese testing agency.

With a larger battery of 5200 m(A)h, DEEBOT OZMO T8 AIVI can work for three hours and clean large areas of up to 300 sqm easily. The robot’s carpet detection technology allows it to automatically increase suction power on carpets when vacuuming and avoid carpets when mopping, keeping the cleaning experience completely automated.

When paired with the ECOVACS Home App, or smart home devices such as Amazon Echo/Dot and Google Home, users can also control the robot remotely. The intuitive robot will manage its own updates adding new features and functions in the future by using OTA technology. Users can update the App to get the optimized functions.

In addition, with the real time camera acting as an on-demand video manager for the entire house, users can choose to use it for watching the home and monitoring the status of pets, children, or elders in their house anytime and anywhere through the ECOVACS Home App.

Power-up Kit

As part of the launch of the DEEBOT OZMO T8 family, another power-up kit will soon be introduced to enhance overall cleaning performance and user experience. The Auto-Empty Station which cleans the robot’s dustbin automatically after cleaning. The station’s disposable dust bag holds up to 30 days of dirt and debris to dramatically reduce the need to frequently replace the dust bag, so that users can enjoy cleaning homes for weeks without the hassle of dumping the bag.

Pricing and Availability

The DEEBOT OZMO T8 AIVI is available today on Lazada for SGD 729. For more information, please visit ecovacs.com or connect with us on Facebook [https://www.facebook.com/ecovacs.sg/]. More products from the DEEBOT OZMO T8 family will be released later this year.

Plastics and Composites Maintain Growth Trajectory through 2020 Uncertainties

Leave a comment

SANTA CLARA, California, May 14, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Frost & Sullivan’s recent analysis, Global Outlook for Chemicals in the Plastics and Composites, CASE, and Construction Industries, 2020, finds that the market of coatings, adhesives, sealants, and elastomers (CASE), plastics and composites, and construction chemicals will be driven by new supply chain optimization concepts, digital transformation, and circularity in products, processes, and packaging. Under the conditions of COVID-19, the global chemicals and materials market is expected to reach $3,716.5 billion by the end of 2020.  

Frost & Sullivan - Plastics and Composites

For further information on this analysis, please visit: http://frost.ly/43g

“Despite the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic across industries, the demand for modular building materials and advanced admixtures will propel the construction chemicals segment,” said Christeena Thomas, Chemicals, Materials & Nutrition Industry Analyst at Frost & Sullivan. “Additionally, increasing demand for lightweighting of parts, especially in the automotive and transportation industry, will trigger growth in the plastics and composites segment, whereas sustainability and bio-based chemicals and materials will strongly boost the need for research and development in the CASE industry.”

Thomas added: “Regionally, with increasing urbanization, large population, and a drive for local production by governments—Asia Pacific is likely to become a growth engine for the global chemicals and materials industry. Further, India will register the highest growth due to rising investments in building and construction, infrastructure, and healthcare sector.”

In China, the chemicals and materials industry is in a state of rapid transition. Manufacturers are expected to focus more on products and services that reflect consumer demand trends. For North America and Europe, a host of uncertainties related to international trade, downturns in manufacturing and economic stability will result in slower growth. 

To tap into opportunities exposed by the global chemicals and materials industry in this COVID-19 era, here are some growth prospects:

  • Manufacturers and suppliers in the plastics and composites, CASE, and construction chemicals industries should invest in Big Data analytics, artificial intelligence (AI), and natural language processing as this will lower costs and enhance productivity, ensuring quality.
  • Building materials will witness a rise in the development and commercialization of bio-based or sustainable products due to which market participants in the chemicals and materials industry should focus on producing recyclable materials.
  • Digital transformation will allow chemicals-as-a-service offerings to customers.
  • The trade war between the U.S and China is encouraging companies to strengthen their footprint in India and ASEAN countries as this will help them hedge their risks associated with trade involving China.

Global Outlook for Chemicals in the Plastics and Composites, CASE, and Construction Industries, 2020 is part of Frost & Sullivan’s global   Visionary Science Growth Partnership Service program.

Fluidra® introduces the NEW Blueriiot™ Smart Water Analyzer that makes balancing water easy with accurate anytime, anywhere readings and alerts

Leave a comment

When it Comes to Maintaining Water Chemistry it’s Time to Get Connected. Stay Balanced.

SAN DIEGO, May 2, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Never worry about pool water being out of balance again. The Blueriiot Smart Water Analyzer from Fluidra takes precise readings and lets you know if there’s an issue so you can address it immediately.

As a leading manufacturer of innovative pool products, Fluidra’s focus is on creating reliable products that make owning and maintaining pools easier for pool owners and more convenient for professionals.

A perfect solution for achieving properly balanced water in any type of pool — above-ground, in-ground, spa, salt or otherwise — the Blueriiot Smart Water Analyzer is a device that either sits in a pool or spa, or is installed professionally at the pool pad (with the Blue Fit50 attachment accessory) and accurately measures four key elements needed to keep water crystal clear —  pH, ORP (sanitation potential), conductivity (salinity) and water temperature. This advanced technological tool for testing water balance then sends its readings to the Blueriiot app on any mobile device for constant vigilance on-the-go, as well as to the FREE Virtual Pool Care website where pool service professionals can monitor all of their customers’ water care from one easy-view dashboard.

Available with built-in Bluetooth capabilities for manual poolside testing with the tap of a finger or with Wi-Fi connectivity (when paired with the supplemental Wi-Fi Bridge) for round-the-clock watch with automatic chemistry readings taken throughout the day — the Blueriiot Smart Water Analyzer helps prevent common problems associated with unbalanced pool water, like algae blooms, corrosion, scaling, chlorine overdoses and more, before they begin.

A subscription-based app, you can choose the standard “GOLD” Bluetooth  version with basic manual operation, or get the premium benefits of Blueriiot “Platinum” (available only with the Wi-Fi enabled device) with automated, real-time readings and alerts sent straight to your smart device for immediate notification if water balance is anything less than perfect.

In such cases where there is an issue with water balance, chemical recommendations are provided, making it easy for pool owners to take matters into their own hands and allowing pool professionals to know exactly what supplies to bring — significantly reducing time spent resolving the issue and increasing the number of service visits they can make.

“Chemical tracking is an essential part of everyday pool maintenance and water balance should be checked periodically. With the information provided by the Blueriiot device, keeping water balanced is easier because you always know the status,” explains Mara McCartney, senior product manager of water care. “But what if you’re not there to check it? Small issues can quickly become big problems if your water balance is off. The Blueriiot Smart Water Analyzer not only provides peace of mind in knowing that there can always be someone watching over your water, it lets you know exactly what you need to do to bring it back to balanced. So, even when no one is physically there, someone can always be aware.”

Additionally, the Blueriiot Smart Water Analyzer keeps a record of past readings, giving professionals a clear look at how the pool system is performing between visits so that they can predict and prevent potential problems and identify if there’s a bigger issue at hand.

About Fluidra
Fluidra is a publicly listed company focused on developing innovative products, services and IoT solutions for the residential and commercial pool markets, globally.

SHANGHAI, April 30, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — On April 29th, 24Tidy (Shanghai) Network Technology Inc. announced its 950 million RMB acquisition of Tiantian Laundry (Guangzhou) Co., Ltd. in its strategy press conference in Beijing. As one of the largest online life services companies in China, 24Tidy has served over 12 million families with its excellent services that include laundry, flower, etc. Tiantian has been a famous brand in the laundry industry since 1991 and owns the largest centralized smart laundry factory in the world.

While many industries are suffering during the epidemic, the online economy has experienced dramatic growth since the beginning of 2020. When people keeping stay at home because of COVID-19, online services have been used by more and more customers covering all ages in China. 

The founder of 24Tidy, Yao Zongchang said, “24Tidy and Tiantian Laundry had reached the agreement before the epidemic. The outbreak of COVID-19 accelerated our pace to restructure the whole industry while the increasing domestic demands also accelerated the strategic upgrading of 24Tidy.” The online laundry market remains a blue ocean area and obviously 24Tidy seized the timing to make the right move. 24Tidy has provided professional online washing and disinfection services for more than 1.5 million families with a remarkable growth performance since the outbreak of COVID-19. The average daily active users of 24Tidy App increased by 200% compared with the same period of last year with a continuous upward trend. Also, core technology like AI algorithm used to optimize user experience and customize service by analyzing diversified big data from user consumer behaviors, helps 24Tidy maintain its competitiveness.

There are more than 400 thousand laundry shops in China and most of them are operated by very traditional business mode with small production unit behind the front desk. The old way makes the business owners run the business inefficiently with high cost burden, unable to guarantee high quality of the service and also take great risks of potential pollution to the local communities. This acquisition will make 24Tidy fundamentally lead small laundry business owners to update their business model with empowerment by information system and centralized supply chain, and eventually to resolve those risky issues.

The epidemic will enhance public awareness of health and personal hygiene, which will advance customer’s preferences on professional washing and disinfection of clothing.
