It seems that Roborock is not the one firm bringing a robotic vacuum with a mechanical arm to CES 2025. Rival firm Dreame, which unveiled its stair-climbing robotic vacuum earlier within the week, can be engaged on a robotic vacuum. Arms for lifting objects.
Based on the corporate, the system continues to be a prototype, however the as-yet-unknown RoboWake Dream was on full show at Dream’s CES sales space. Contemplating it is nonetheless a prototype, the unique arm seems to be way more distinguished than Rubrock’s Saros Z70. It was very thick and had a big “claw” that seemed prefer it might raise fairly heavy objects. (Robrock says its vacuum can raise objects weighing as much as 300 grams.)
Sadly, Dream did not appear to really seize something, however I might see the arm lengthen and retract a number of occasions. It seems to be on the identical system because the X50 because the prototype vacuum additionally has mounted “legs”, just like Dream’s stair-climbing X50.
A Dream consultant on the sales space instructed me that the corporate has been engaged on a prototype for a while, however determined to speed up its plans for the house at CES. After a fast look, I knew precisely what he was referring to: Dream’s sales space stood straight throughout from Rubrock, who was displaying a big duplicate of his arm-mounted Saros Z70 on prime of his sales space. .
Perhaps subsequent 12 months we’ll see two robotic vacuum arms wrestle.
