Snake-Like Robotic Vacuums

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

This Conceptual Folding Robot Vacuum Easily Moves Around the Home

— October 29, 2020 — Tech
Robotic cleaning solutions are commonplace in many homes but are often limited by their static design that can only clean open spaces, so this conceptual folding robot vacuum has been designed to change this. The snake-like robotic vacuum can be used in the home to effectively capture dust and debris from virtually every area thanks to its shapeshifting design. This is made possible thanks to a series of hinges that allow it to snake around furniture legs and other obstacles for a better level of cleaning.

The conceptual folding robot vacuum is the design work of 승민 김 and identifies what could be done to make the cleaning appliance more efficient in living spaces as it becomes a more permanent part of the smart home.
Trend Themes
1. Shapeshifting Robotics - Develop shapeshifting robots to increase efficiency in cleaning and other industries where static designs can be limiting.
2. Obstacle-avoiding Robotics - Create obstacle-avoiding robots to improve their functionality in navigating complex environments such as homes and warehouses.
3. Flexible Robotics - Build flexible robots that can conform to different shapes and sizes, allowing them to move more freely and perform a wider range of tasks.
Industry Implications
