Unique Properties: Pool Cleaner M1 AI Series is an advanced robotic pool cleaner boasting an unprecedented runtime of up to 16 hours. Unlike traditional blind cleaners, it features Biomimetic Dual AI Vision and a Quad Core Neural Engine for true 3D spatial awareness, actively targeting debris. It effortlessly climbs steep walls using a composite Dual Grip Traction System. Upon completion, a sonar-activated One Touch Waterline Return lets users tap the water to summon the robot, ensuring a 30-day hands-free
Dimensions & Packaging: Product Dimensions：507 X392 X 249mm—507 X 392 X 249mm；Robot NW/GW: 11.5-17.8kg
The exterior features an impact-resistant polymer shell. It integrates a high-energy-density lithium battery delivering up to 16 hours of continuous runtime. The system includes a 4.5L extra-large filter basket for heavy debris, twin pumps providing turbocharged suction, and a 5A fast-charging dock. Sensors include a waterproof acoustic sonar module and dual 4K optical cameras.

Production Technology: The core features a hydrodynamic polymer body housing a high-density lithium-ion battery and AI-Inverter system. Environmental perception relies on two optical lenses and a 4K image processing unit connected to a 6 TOPS neural engine. The chassis uses a composite drive architecture of four wheels and slim tracks. The Dual Force Flow System uses twin pumps for massive suction. An internal acoustic sonar module detects water surface taps to trigger the automatic waterline return sequence.
Design Challenge: The core engineering challenge was integrating automotive-grade 3D vision underwater without consuming massive battery power. Typical optical sensors fail in low light or cloudy pool water. We overcame this by developing an adaptive dual-camera system with a 4K image processor and a 6 TOPS neural engine for dynamic mapping. An external challenge was physical retrieval logistics; we engineered an acoustic sonar module that filters ambient wave noise to ensure reliable water-tap detection.
Research: We conducted global field research to evaluate pool maintenance pain points. Testing with 50 pool-owning families revealed that current robots clean randomly, miss spots, and are too heavy to retrieve manually from deep water. Users demanded a zero-rescue solution. This insight drove our dual vision navigation and sonar recall innovations. By actively targeting debris and operating for up to 16 hours, it multiplies cleaning efficiency by 10 times, making backyard maintenance effortless.
Inspiration: Inspiration stems directly from the frustrations of pool owners. Traditional cleaners navigate blindly, get stuck constantly, lack battery endurance, and are extremely heavy to lift from deep water. Guided by our Artful Living Technology philosophy, we envisioned a zero-intervention ecosystem. We gave the robot true 3D sight via dual cameras to eliminate missed spots, and engineered an acoustic sonar recall function so the machine proactively comes to the user, ending manual rescues.
Project Duration: The project commenced in January 2024 in Shenzhen, China, with the final production model completed in December 2025. The product will be officially exhibited globally at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, United States, in January 2026. Global distributor and independent website sales initiate in April 2026. Retail availability across major e-commerce platforms in North America and Europe fully begins in May 2026 to align perfectly with the peak summer usage season.
Operation Flow: Daily operation is entirely wire-free and highly intuitive. Users just drop the robot into the pool and the smart system maps the environment autonomously. Dual cameras precisely identify debris and dynamically adjust suction. It climbs walls effortlessly and navigates shallow water steps easily. When cleaning finishes or charging is needed, users simply tap the water surface. The sonar detects the acoustic wave and commands the robot to climb to the nearest waterline for easy retrieval.
