Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Robotic Vacuum Cleaner Paintings Shot in Long Exposure Cameras

— February 1, 2012 — Unique
Long exposure settings on cameras give people a chance to weave symbols with their bodies or objects before the camera's shutter closes, and Roomba takes advantage of this with its robotic vacuum cleaner paintings. Hoovers usually seem as if they are whizzing through rooms in arbitrary directions just sucking up whatever is in their paths.

Having a long exposure camera attached to the vacuums shows the paths they take and, with a little bit of experimentation with color, the floors are not just clean, but much more interesting to look at. The vacuums move in circles and straight lines, and their seemingly arbitrary movement actually makes for great floor decals.
Trend Themes
1. Long Exposure Art - The use of long exposure settings on cameras to create artistic designs with robotic vacuum cleaners presents new opportunities for visual creativity.
2. Automated Artistic Expression - Robotic vacuum cleaner paintings showcase the potential for household appliances to engage in creative activities, opening avenues for automated artistic expression.
3. Enhanced Cleaning Experience - Using long exposure cameras to capture the paths of robotic vacuum cleaners adds a new dimension to the cleaning process, making it visually captivating and intriguing.
Industry Implications
1. Home Appliances - The integration of artistic capabilities in robotic vacuum cleaners presents opportunities for the home appliances industry to tap into new consumer preferences for visually appealing cleaning experiences.
2. Photography and Imaging - Long exposure camera settings in conjunction with robotic vacuum cleaner paintings create opportunities for the photography and imaging industry to offer unique artistic solutions.
3. Interior Design - The use of robotic vacuum cleaner paintings as floor decals introduces innovative possibilities for the interior design industry to create visually striking and personalized spaces.
