SCOOBA Floor Washer Robot |
The First Robotic Floor Washer
Called the first consumer robot to replace the mop and bucket by Popular
Science magazine, the Scooba (invented by the experts who created the
Roomba) is the automatic robot that efficiently and simultaneously
prepares, washes, scrubs, and dries tile, linoleum, or sealed hardwood
floors, without human intervention. Using a specially formulated
bleach-free solution, Scooba methodically cleans a medium-sized kitchen
floor in as little as 45 minutes, navigating independently and adjusting
up to 67 times per second to maintain the most efficient pattern. |
 |
| As it passes over
flooring, the robot picks up loose dirt and sprays solution, while a
rotary scrubber gently cleans, and a drier picks up the solution.
Approximately the diameter of a dinner plate, the robot is compact
enough to reach under cabinet kick boards and most furniture, and at the
touch of a button, it courses through a room, moving around chair legs,
ledges, and other potential roadblocks thanks to patented AWARE sensor
technology that redirects the robot when it gently encounters an object
in its path. The robot cleans a standard-sized kitchen floor on a single
tank, and it can be restricted to clean specific areas using the
included Virtual Wall (additional walls sold below) that creates an
infrared beam the Scooba will not cross. Includes 8 oz. of cleaning
solution, a built-in rechargeable battery, and charging station. 3 1/2"
H x 14 3/4" Diam. (12 1/2 lbs.) |
