About Simart Katya Primárna funkcia: Robotický vysávač

Simart Katya je robotický vysávač určený na domáce použitie. Systém automatického plánovania trasy skenuje obvod miestností a mapuje efektívnu čistiacu dráhu pomocou rotujúceho laserového distribučného snímača. Sací výkon 3000 Pa a dve zametacie kefy podporujú dôkladné čistenie. Batéria s kapacitou 6000 mAh umožňuje až tri hodiny prevádzky a pokrytie približne 300 štvorcových metrov. Tenká nádrž na vodu umožňuje súčasné vysávanie a vytieranie. Vzorovaný horný panel a chrómový prstenec okolo krytu snímača dodávajú spotrebiču výrazný vzhľad.

Production Technology
as a mobile and autonomous device, the plastic enclosure on top and bottom body parts make Katya lightweight and help saving the battery use. The top panel is made of In-mold lamination (IML) process to achieve a clean look and makes it more attractive for the consumer. the Laser Distribution Sensor has the ability to rotate 360 degrees to scan the perimeter. To prevent the LDS from damaging, there is a plastic cover on top coupled with a chrome ring to complete the outlook of the top panel.
Design Challenge
As the majority of the robot vacuum cleaners have the same form factor and technical specifications, the challenge of the project was to differentiate uniquely from the other products in the market. Our design approach emerged from the idea of showing off the Laser Distribution Sensor (LDS), which is regarded as the most advanced and intelligent part of Katya Robot VC. To make it more visible to the end-user and to emphasise the power, efficiency and intelligence of the device, a chrome ring has been added to the LDS cover. Additionally, the top panel with the distinctive pattern was designed to provide more technology-driven design style.
Research
In order to understand the expectations of the consumers, a survey amongst the existing robot vacuum cleaner consumers was conducted to point out the attraction points on the device. Additionally the trends in home living environment and competitors in the market were analysed. The findings from the user survey, use environment and market researches were used as data input to create the personas and design directions. After the final design was concluded, prototypes were prepared to test and verify with the real users. The insights from the users were collected to finalise the design before the mass production.
Inspiration
People today are busier than ever and a robot vacuum cleaner, saving more time and effort compared to the traditional vacuum cleaners, can bring extra time and valued to one's life . Having smart functions and being operated by a smartphone app, a robot vacuum cleaner can be set up your to clean home every day of the week. A robot vacuum cleaner is a great addition to a home and provides the users with more time to do the things they enjoy most.
Project Duration
The project started in November 2020 and finished in May 2021 in Hong Kong
Operation Flow
Having a seperate on/off and wifi connection button on its top panel, Simart Katya robot vacuum cleaner can be operated by its smartphone app or its remote control. Once powered on and set-up to initiate, Katya first starts scanning the room perimeters by using its proprietary Laser Distribution Sensor. After mapping the perimeter, robot vacuum cleaner automatically starts cleaning or mobbing the floor. When the battery is low, it returns back to the charging dock to recharge.
