Stupid Robot Vacuums Made Smart | iRobot Home | Home Automation
Robot vacuums have become increasingly popular in recent years thanks to their ability to autonomously clean floors, carpets, and hard surfaces with minimal effort on the user’s part. However, robot vacuums are not without their limitations. One of the most frequently cited drawbacks is the inability to create scheduled routines that don’t interfere with day-to-day activities.
In this video, I investigate the challenges inherent to modern-day robot vacuums while examining various techniques to overcome them. By the end of this video, you'll be armed with the tools and knowledge to add smarts to your stupid robot using the Apple eco-system (iOS Shortcuts, Calendars. Apple Home), Presence Detection via Home Automation Applications (Wink, SmartThings, TreeHouse), and NFC Tags.
