Even when they're stuck inside for month, the last thing consumers want to do is clean their homes. That may explain the growing demand for home care robots. According to a new study by Market Insights Report, the household robot market will grow at a CAGR of 20.5% through 2025. Market leaders include iRobot, Neato Robotics, Samsung, Ecovacs Robotics, LG Electronics and Blue Frog Robotics.
Among all the household robots, automated vacuum cleaners and moppers are the most commercialized and developed products by these and other companies. iRobot, for example, launched Roomba i7+ which relies on voice commands and intelligent mapping techniques. The report notes, too, that with increasing developments in the machine vision cameras, companies are also using these 2D and 3D machine vision cameras with AI technologies to effectively map and edges of the floor like a staircase and to recognize obstacles such as cables, dustbins, doorsills and rugs. Moreover, to increase the life of cleaning tools like brushes and filter, now the companies are installing the blades inside the chamber to cut the trash into pieces; especially human and pet hairs which causes frequent entanglements in the equipment and reduces cleaning effectiveness.
