Dyson robot vacuums
|
Dyson Robots use their 360° vision system to navigate your home.
Dyson 360 Eye™ robot uses its Infra-Red (IR) sensors to create a map of the area it has cleaned, each time it cleans. So it knows where it has yet to cover.
Dyson 360 Heurist™ robot vacuum Heurist uses its sensors to create a map of your home. This allows you to customise which zones of your home the Robot vacuums, what power mode to use in each and if there are areas it should avoid.
|
Images from the camera stay on your machine, and are not accessed by Dyson.
Mapping data from your cleans is securely sent to the Link app, so you can see where the Robot vacuum has cleaned.
The map is securely stored on the Link app, so that you can adjust and customise it.
