thx for the question Daniel. First, cleaning head is just 2.5” inches tall so it first under those things and gets o visible area easily. Second, have you ever wondered why 24 years after coming to market disc robots still chew wires and get stuck all the time..especially in this age of computer intelligence. it’s because a flat ant-like vantage means their vision similar to bug. It’s fundamentally limited. First roombas (w/o camera) were like wearing a blind fold around your eyes and then boucing from wall to wall to cover the room. They were flat because they would bum into everything. The Roomba with camera or disc bot with LIDAR (just a single pixel ones - so one laser) is like still having a blindfold on but now you have a hand out to catch the wall. However, if anything is above or beyond it doesnt see. Neither truely detect obstacles or even recognize or understand the context. That's why they can't see wires and get stuck. Matic is start of Robotics 2.0 vs. disc robots of Robotics 1.0. Matic's the first vision-only AI where robots literally the home the way we do in full 3D, photorealistic manner. It explores, maps, and localize in your home exactly the way you do and maps are dynamic so it constanly sees what's changed and updates the maps. This is possible because of its taller human child like vantage point. We talked to many users and felt that cleaning obviously accessible area thoroughly, effectively, w/o needing to babysit around obstacles was a far bigger use case for families with kids and pets than cleaning underneath the furniture. That can be taken care of once a month. So we built Matic to be as tall as a crawling human child so it can see top down. As a pet owner and father of 3 kids, our primary need wasn't under the furniture. That can be cleaned once a month as a deep clean. We wanted something that would clean day to day messes, hair of my golden retriever, cookie crumbs, kitchen, etc., constantly w/o needing supervision. We wanted something that would clean our thick shag rugs and go over them (which disc robots cannot). So we prioritized the needed for families like us. In addition, We wanted to solve problems that disc robots struggle with: ***Disc robots struggle with threadsholds or shag rugs or thick pile rugs -- for that big wheels of matic help. ***Actuated cleaning head adjusts to different thickness of the rugs and dynamically changes suction/brush roll speed to clean rugs that even manual vacuums cannot clean. ***Designed to deal with pet hair in a way tha it doesn't get clogged and don't have to flip the robot and cut hair - so easily acceessible brush roll. ***Cleaning head is littler over 2" tall so it can easily fit under space below kitchen cabines and visible dirt under the couches and furniture. Those don't get dirty as frequently as visible area. ***And one the things we cared about and have heard from any customers is that it doesn't scare pets and kids. ***as mentioned above, higher vantage point of cameras (instead ant-like vantage point of disc robots) allows us to see floors the same way we do at 45 degree angle -- this means it can truly see what obstacles are and abvoid it. No more wire chewing. ***In addition, just like the bottom of the cars get dirtier faster, flat robot sensors get dirtier much faster too, and then they make all kinds of mistakes. Higher camera position allows robot to see like humans at 45 degree angle to the floor and doesn’t get dirty ***deftly navigates around any surface/obstacles using visual intelligence ***quieter than dishwashers at 55dBA ***auto-toggles between vacuuming and mopping by recognizing floor types - outperforms any vacuuming and mopping robot (in our own homes and tests -- I have 3 kids and a golden retriever) ***Convenience of HEPA bags that keep the air clean and eliminate the hassle of changing filters ***private — keeps your data within 4 walls of your home with all edge device processing (no cloud at all).
