About Hobot S6 Pro Robot Limpacristais
Hobot S6 Pro é un robot limpacristais para uso doméstico. O dispositivo suxéitase ao vidro mediante succión de baleiro e despázase de arriba a abaixo, invertendo o sentido ao atopar marcos de fiestras, obstáculos e bordos sen marco, co fin de cubrir toda a superficie. Dúas mopas móvense de adiante cara atrás 600 veces por minuto para eliminar o po e neutralizar a electricidade estática do vidro. Dúas boquillas ultrasónicas liberan unha fina néboa que disolve as manchas. O funcionamento é posible mediante un mando a distancia ou unha aplicación para smartphone. Os panos de limpeza son reutilizables e o consumo de auga é limitado.

- Design Challenge
- Incorporating new technologies like static electricity neutralization while adhering to safety and production standards posed big challenges. Access to cutting edge research on static electricity's role in dust accumulation was vital. Overcoming these hurdles required extensive prototyping and the use of advanced technology to ensure top performance without sacrificing safety or usability. This endeavor advanced automated window cleaning technology and established new industry benchmarks.
- Research
- Focused on automating window cleaning, the Hobot S6 Pro aimed to enhance efficiency and bring convenience. Beyond its essential goal, a pivotal discovery this time was the role of static electricity in attracting dust, leading to the development of a dual-mop reciprocating polish that neutralizes static electricity, thus keeping windows spotless for longer after cleaning. This innovation streamlines maintenance tasks, yielding promising results, and has raised the industry standard yet again.
- Inspiration
- The inspiration for the Hobot S6 Pro stemmed from the laborious and dangerous task of window cleaning. Its dual mop reciprocating polish function mimics human hand cleaning with unmatched speed and precision. The device includes an ultrasonic spraying function that replicates human breath on the window to dissolve stains. Research on static electricity's role in attracting dust led to a design that efficiently cleans and neutralizes static charge, significantly prolonging window cleanliness.
- Project Duration
- The project timeline for the Hobot S6 Pro began with the initial idea in November 2022. The first tooling phase was undertaken in July 2023, leading to mass production commencing in March 2024.
- Operation Flow
- Operating the Hobot S6 Pro is simple. Attach it to the window and press the button to begin. It moves across from top to bottom, reversing at frameless edges or upon encountering obstacles and window frames, to ensure full coverage automatically. The high speed reciprocating dual mop mimics hand cleaning, while two ultrasonic nozzles emit a fine mist to dissolve stains. Control and monitor via the smartphone app, or use a remote for basic operations, getting the cleaning task done effortlessly.
