Mint Automatic Cleaner Video – Smart
This video shows how the the Mint automatic floor cleaner is smart. It uses a NorthStar beacon to track its progress around a room so that it won’t miss any spots while it is sweeping a room. Because it uses navigation technology, it cleans floors in a methodical, systematic way which is very efficient.
Designed into the robot is “perfect edge technology”. The Mint robot uses this to find edges and follow them in such a way that it won’t miss corners. It picks up dirt that gets pushed into edges. The Mint automatic cleaner comes equipped with a bunch of sensors to help it navigate. These help the cleaner avoid area rugs and carpets, and will also keep the robot from driving off of steps or down the stairs.
