More About Beatbot Aquasense 2 Cleaning Device
AquaSense 2 is a robotic pool cleaner designed for the automatic cleaning of swimming pools. Two ultrasonic radars support precise mapping and path optimization, so the robot avoids obstacles and adapts to different pool shapes and sizes. A forward tilted, curved body increases downward pressure, which improves maneuverability and wall adhesion underwater. An internal buoyancy chamber system balances the weight and allows the cleaner to rest on the water surface after each task. The top cover integrates the controls and a seamless grip.

Design Details
- Unique Properties
- AquaSense 2 is a revolutionary smart pool cleaner capable of efficient, thorough cleaning and smart water surface docking, offering users a simple, user friendly, and intelligent experience. It incorporates advanced sensors and optimization algorithms, while also featuring a forward tilted, curved profile and an integrated design. These features enable the robot to intelligently adapt to specific pool dimensions and shapes, ensuring every cleaning task is performed effectively.
- Inspiration
- With an emphasis on both friendliness and cleaning efficiency, AquaSense 2 boasts a rounded, sleekly curved design that conveys an approachable sense while harmoniously fitting into various environments. More thoughtfully, the robot features a forward tilt that increases downward pressure to reduce water resistance, thereby enhancing its maneuverability and wall adhesion underwater. These features ensure superior cleaning performance and stability of the product.
- Research
- Traditional pool cleaning methods are often plagued by inefficiency, complexity, and potential harm to the environment and human health. There is a pressing need in the market for solutions that are efficient, convenient, and environmentally friendly. Enter AquaSense 2, which addresses these demands by leveraging advanced intelligent technology and delivering robust cleaning performance. It redefines pool cleaning with enhanced efficiency, reducing both manual intervention and chemical usage.
- Challenge
- After several adjustments, the design team settled on a forward tilted profile that enhances downward pressure, improving cleaning efficiency and preventing tipping or overturning during operation. The design team also integrated a full buoyancy chamber system within its compact body, optimizing its weight distribution to keep a perfect balance between the pool bottom, walls, and surface. This allows the robot to rest stably on the water surface for extended periods after completing its tasks.
- Realization and Technology
- The advanced technique of in mold decoration by roller not only protects the pool and environment from the pollutants often associated with materials like paint, but also creates a highly durable surface that is resistant to corrosion and scratches, thereby extending the lifespan of the pool cleaner. Moreover, the top cover features a highly integrated functional area and a seamless grip, ensuring a sleek, uniform appearance while enhancing user convenience.
- Operation and Interaction
- The robot incorporates two ultrasonic radars for precise mapping and path optimization, boosting cleaning efficiency while effectively avoiding collisions and obstacles. Its design ensures flexible maneuverability and strong wall adhesion underwater, enhancing the user experience with its efficient, intelligent cleaning performance. The top cover features a highly integrated functional area for easy operation, and the robot automatically charges by simply placing it on the wireless charging dock.
- Project Duration and Location
- The design and development of Auqasense 2 started in Suzhou, China, in April 2024, and it was launched in North America in February 2025.
