At IFA 2024, Roborock unveiled five new products, most of which are robot vacuums, expanding its offering with improved technology at different price ranges. The new models include the Qrevo Curv, Qrevo Edge, Qrevo Slim, H5, and Zeo Lite. "As we look to the future, our commitment remains steadfast—to empower our users' lives with intelligent solutions that exemplify our user-centric philosophy. These latest developments reflect our journey and ongoing dedication to excellence, redefining what it means to maintain a clean, responsive, and harmonious living environment," said Mr. Quan, President of Roborock. On the Roborock Qrevo Curv and Qrevo Edge, the company is introducing the AdaptiLift Chassis, which incorporates an independently adjustable three-wheel control (left and right main wheels and omni-wheel). This allows these models to dynamically adjust up to 10mm in height. This enhances their ability to clean various floor types in different home environments by extending cleaning coverage to include mid-to-long pile carpets and navigating double-layer thresholds up to 4 cm high, thus setting a new industry benchmark.

With 18,600Pa HyperForce Suction and FlexiArm Technology, Roborock says these robots improve cleaning efficiency. The multifunctional dock 3.0 features a 75ºC hot mop washing feature to remove almost all bacteria from the spinning mops. For the Roborock Qrevo Slim, the company is betting on the industry's slimmest 3D ToF navigation robot vacuums, which measures 8.2 cm high and has obstacle recognition tech. This new technology helps the robot recognize and react to up to 73 obstacles. It also features a FlexiArm Side Brush and mop, DoRoller Riser, and 11,000Pa suction with dock capabilities similar to those of the other models.

The AI-controlled, moderate temperature drying efficiently captures moisture, ensuring optimal fabric care. The Roborock Zeo Lite boasts a large capacity, handling 10kg for washing and 6kg for drying, completing a full cycle in just one hour without the need to transfer laundry.

Throughout history, aqueducts have stood as monumental testaments to human ingenuity, engineering prowess, and the enduring quest for survival and prosperity. These marvels of ancient and modern engineering were designed to transport water from distant sources to cities, agricultural lands, and industrial sites, often traversing challenging terrains and vast distances. And they were not exclusive to a single civilization - instead, they were created all across the world in different ages, showing us that our ancestors were geniuses in their own right. 10 Jaw-dropping Engineering Marvels of the Inca Empire Uncharted Section of Augustan Aqueduct Discovered Beneath Naples 1.
