The trend towards digitization of the the home continues. The availability of more technologically advanced devices coupled with the reduction in costs has driven the demand for home robots. Whether it be housework or companionship, smart devices have the ability to provide more efficient ways of performing daily tasks. According to Research and Markets, the home automation market is predicted to reach a market value of USD 79.57 billion by the year 2022.
An Affordable Robot that Mops up
Looking to transform our homes just in time for Christmas, Roborock has unveiled the latest fully autonomous smart appliances. The Roborock S5 Max is a small, lightweight autonomous vacuum that features innovative 1500rpm fan spinning technology that creates an intense continuous 2000Pa suction. In addition to vacuuming your carpet and floor, what distinguishes this device from its competitors is its diverse and total cleaning capabilities. With its seamless automated mopping capabilities, the S5 Max is your total floor solution . The spring loaded mop presses evenly on the floor for a consistent clean throughout your entire home.
The first time you use it, the S5 Max robot vacuum maps and assesses its surroundings on all floors and carpets, adapts to obstacles, and avoids ledges. The S5 Max leverages LIDAR laser scanning system, which is which enables the bot to make use of a real-time mapping functionality. As the robot cleaner moves around your home, it scans the room area and defines obstacles that might get in the way. The S5 Max uses dynamic Z-shaped patterns for its cleaning algorithm.
Intelligent Features
The robot’s thin design allows it to easily coast below furniture to provide thorough clean throughout your home. The 5200 mAh Lithium-Ion Battery provides over three hours of cleaning time. For larger homes the S5 Max leverages the smart top-up feature that allows the robot to quick top-up charge its battery in order to complete the job.

- Sweeping+Mopping
- Zone Cleaning,
- Designated Cleaning,
- Real-time Mapping
- Virtual barrier/ zones in app,
- Intelligent identification of areas/ rooms,

Control of the Roborock S5 Max can be done through your iPhone or Android smartphone mobile device or voice control with Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant. Setup is literally complete within minutes. Through the app, you can select from a variety of modes, times and areas. You can schedule cleaning from your smartphone and target specific areas within the map. Define and use no-mop zones and barriers with no-go zones and barriers for total control over where your S5 Max goes.
Robots and AI have the ability to transform what we do within our homes and enhance the way we live. The Roborock S5 Max is an attractive yet affordable autonomous alternative to help to clean up your messes.
