[Blue Technology Observation] The real leader is to promote industry change and change consumers' lifestyles through technological iteration.
A sense of technology, a sense of luxury, and intelligence are the three necessary conditions for clean appliances in a quality life. As the "big brother" in the cleaning appliance industry, every move of Ecovacs attracts attention from the outside world. It is not just the new product launch itself, but also the demonstration effect on the industry's broadening of the track and new products breaking through boundaries.
On August 17, Ecovacs held the 2023 strategic new product launch conference. Dibao, Chuangbao, and Qinbao released blockbuster new products together for the first time. Putting aside the product itself, at this conference, we were delighted to see three trends in home service robots, and Ecovacs is a small step ahead of the industry.
Trend 1: AI attributes are more obvious, service and attention are key words.
Not satisfied with the single track of sweeping robot, Ecovacs wants to integrate the robot more into the home space. The DEEBOT X2 sweeping and mopping robot is responsible for cleaning the floor, the WINBOT W2 window cleaning robot can clean windows at high altitudes, and the AIRBOT Z2 air purifying robot can move to purify the air. These household chores that seem mechanical to us humans require the support of the most advanced AI and machine learning technologies for robots.
Taking DEEBOT X2 as an example, equipped with the self-developed "Evos AINA model", YIKO voice assistant can achieve customized cleaning of specific areas through natural voice commands; AI visual recognition of room environment based on past cleaning data It generates the most suitable cleaning mode according to user preferences and applies it with one click; after turning on the pet AI mode, it will perform customized cleaning on pet hair and pet surrounding cleaning issues.
As the initial market cultivation has been completed, consumers' awareness and consumption of sweeping robots have entered a stage of rapid development, and users' demand for product function-driven, brand-driven and value-driven products has become more obvious.
The value of Ecovacs is that every technology iteration and new product release will focus more on the upgrade of AI functions, focusing on services and humanistic care. This is a clearly visible trend for home robots in the future.
Trend 2: Home robots are life stewards.
Different from industrial robots that mainly work in "unmanned environments" and pay more attention to efficiency and accuracy, the application scenarios of home service robots require close contact with people. To meet people's needs, breakthroughs on the technical side must be made. Indispensable. Behind Ecovacs's advocacy of "let robots serve everyone", it strives to make the application scenarios of its robots applicable to various home environments.
There are three main problems with window cleaning robot products on the market, namely "not easy to use", "incomplete cleaning" and "possible safety hazard of falling". However, Ecovacs window cleaning robot - WINBOT W2 solves these problems through the first independent base station. The robot has a battery life of up to 80 minutes and combines the safety rope and power cord into a "composite cable." In addition, the upgraded host safety configuration and the suction cup design at the bottom of the base station effectively avoid the risk of falling from high altitudes
WINBOT W2 is a product that is different in terms of cleaning ability from the dry rag cleaning or spraying cleaning solution first and then wiping the windows commonly used in other industries. It adopts wet wiping technology and uses a bilateral three-nozzle water spray high-pressure atomization design to cover the cleaning area more evenly and comprehensively. In addition, W2 optimizes the motion system by improving the edge path planning of hardware and software, solving the problem of edge cleaning, and increasing the cleaning efficiency of the whole house windows by 30%
Home service robots are constantly evolving, from their initial simple floor cleaning duties to becoming more versatile and intelligent. They have become an important part of the smart home and can even be said to be indispensable. These home service robots are constantly breaking through the boundaries and content of services and evolving into real life stewards. This trend is obvious
Trend 3: Scenario interconnection opens up more imagination.
If Ecovacs AI applications and technology upgrades are just additions and subtractions based on consumer needs, then efforts to build scene interconnection at multiple points are more like mesh innovation. Ecovacs must not only do a good job in the small ecology of the robot itself, but also do a good job in the big ecology of connecting robots with other devices in the home environment, so that robots will become a new force in intelligent manufacturing and the Internet of Everything.
Debao, Chuangbao and Qinbao, from the ground to the facade, from visible to invisible, Cobos has overcome more "difficulties" in housework and pursues to bring consumers a better home cleaning experience. This is also under the influence of the big ecology and the small ecology, realizing the two-way rush between consumers and home robots, opening up the imagination of a new track for whole-house intelligence, and also providing new problem-solving ideas for the service robot industry
At the recently held first Ecovacs Robot Conference, Ecovacs, as one of the organizers, used the platform of this summit to extensively connect industrial resources. A large number of top experts in the field of service robots, university scholars, high-quality start-ups, investment and financing institutions and other industrial elements gathered in Wuzhong, Suzhou, promoting the agglomeration of industrial ecology, breakthroughs in cutting-edge technologies and the incubation of innovative enterprises
The product ecosystem built by Ecovacs is to create demand for users, and the industrial ecosystem built by Ecovacs is to lead the industry's continuous iteration.
