Robot vacuum cleaners have been available for some time now, but what do you use if you want to clean wooden or tiled floors? There is a new robot cleaner which will be available from the guys over at Evolution Robotics called the Mint.
The Mint is designed to clean hard floors like wood, tiles, and laminates, and it uses special dry cloths to pick up dirt and dust from your floor. Check out the video of Mint in action below.
Features and Functionality
The Mint robot cleaner stands out due to its specialized design for hard floors. Unlike traditional vacuum robots that may struggle with different floor types, Mint excels on wood, tiles, and laminates. It uses disposable or reusable microfiber cloths to sweep and mop the floors. The dry cloths are perfect for picking up dust, dirt, and pet hair, while the wet cloths can be used for a deeper clean, removing grime and sticky residues.
One of the key features of the Mint is its navigation system. It uses NorthStar® technology, which functions similarly to an indoor GPS. This allows the Mint to map out the room and clean in a systematic pattern, ensuring that it covers the entire floor without missing any spots. This technology also helps the Mint avoid obstacles and navigate around furniture with ease.
Ease of Use and Maintenance
The Mint is designed with user convenience in mind. Setting it up is straightforward: simply attach a cleaning cloth, place the Mint on the floor, and press the start button. The robot will then begin its cleaning cycle, moving methodically across the floor. When it encounters an obstacle, it will gently navigate around it and continue cleaning.
Maintenance is also hassle-free. The cleaning cloths can be easily removed and either disposed of or washed for reuse. The Mint itself requires minimal upkeep, with occasional checks to ensure that the sensors and wheels are free from debris.
The Mint will be available shortly from Evolution Robotics for $249, and it is now available to pre-order. So here is another robot to add to your army of house cleaning robots.
