About Hobot S6 Pro Primarna funkcija: Robot za čiščenje oken
Besedilo: Hobot S6 Pro je robot za čiščenje oken za domačo uporabo. Naprava se na steklo pritrdi s pomočjo vakuumskega sesanja in se giblje od zgoraj navzdol, pri čemer spremeni smer ob okenskih okvirjih, ovirah in robovih brez okvirja, da pokrije celotno površino. Dve krpi za čiščenje se premikata naprej in nazaj 600-krat na minuto, da odstranita prah in nevtralizirata statično elektriko na steklu. Dve ultrazvočni šobi sproščata fino meglico, ki raztaplja madeže. Upravljanje je mogoče z daljinskim upravljalnikom ali aplikacijo za pametni telefon. Čistilne krpe so ponovno uporabne, poraba vode pa je omejena.

- 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.
