Matic: The Smartest Robot Vacuum I've Met!

Күн бұрын

Matic unveiled their robot vacuum at the Consumer Electroncis Show. This is our first look at their first robot, simply named Matic. Most robot vacuums still have a lot of issues and engineers add complexity to solve thier problems. Matic takes a ground-up, much simpler approach.
It’s designed and built in California by 2 ex-Google engineers who also worked at Nest. One of the biggest problems I see with robot vacuums is poor obstacle avoidance. Most robots don’t see things like cords, shoelaces, or even people. It’s really easy for a robot to get tangled up in a cord, or shoelaces.

Coolest Vacs of CES 2024! kzbin.info/www/bejne/epi5lpqrgrZ4ndE

@ottot3221 9 ай бұрын

The thing is too high and can't vacuum under a lot of my furniture. Otherwise a cool idea.

The image-based environment mapping isn't new - Dyson's 360 Eye robot vacuum does exactly the same with a single 360 degree camera, and they released that a whole decade ago in 2014. I'm also not a fan of the disposable bag used here, but the wet and dry vacuuming is a plus. In any case, it's way out of my price range but still fun to see.

Not new, but processing power is vastly higher than it was a decade ago. Hopefully I’ll get to play with one soon.

The coolest I seen was the Ascender (currently...no word from team making it)

@vacuumnerds Ай бұрын

This is what I found on the Ascender Kickstarter page: "Pledges made to The 'MIGO Ascender - The Stair-Climbing Robot Vacuum' have been refunded. The project will remain hidden from public view indefinitely. Backers of this project should check their email for a correspondence from Kickstarter for more details."

I love the idea of a fully offline robovac. But for that price, it better be Matter and Home Assistant compatible.

@vivekbagaria3324 9 ай бұрын

Yes, that's our plan too.

@vacuumnerds 9 ай бұрын

I think if it's going to be compatible with an assitant, it will need to connect to the internet. There is an app you saw in the video, and Matic says they are working on expanding its ability to respond to a lot more voice commands. Perhaps Matic will provide an internet connection option in the future. If there are updates from Matic, I'll try to cover them.

Bags are a non-starter. The revo just barely gets a pass because you can trim the bag seal And use a long flat clip to reseal it so you don’t need to buy replacements and throw out perfectly fine bags. We shouldn’t be encouraging ridiculous consumables on these things during the short warranty periods they come with. Consumers should be pushing for 5year minimum warranty and a consumableless or user replaceable/repairable standard side brushes, rollers etc

@vacuumnerds 7 ай бұрын

Bags give you much better air quality though, and that's a priority for some buyers. If you don't like bags, there are bagless options to keep operating costs down. Fortunately, there is a lot of competition in the vacuuum world.

@Anonymous-m9f9j 7 ай бұрын

@@vacuumnerds it would be good to see some testing and numbers on the so called cleaner air coming from bags and filters. My hunch is after a couple of runs it goes out the window.

@victorial6314 8 ай бұрын

A bigger, bulkier, more expensive, not as powerful waste!! I’ll stick with my s9+ with silhouette cameras, cord, sock, and pet waste detection, laser, and other useful features at around $1k. No forcing customers to continue purchasing those bags since the s9+ self-empties into a larger bin that, for those ‘Penney-pinchers’, the bin bag can be emptied and reused…each last about a month, not week like this ‘matic’. My s9+ tells my Braarva m6 when it’s done vacuuming so the m6 can start mopping. The m6 offers both reusable pads and/or disposable. Just like some higher-end robot vacuums, you can program both s9 & m6 to only vacuum in certain areas while blocking it as many areas as desired. The height of the two make it nice to discreetly hide it under places like cabinets, beds, etc… why would anyone waste over $1700 on the ‘matic’ (not the most creative name) You can buy BOTH s9 $ m6 for less, and these are iRobot’s top models!

Appreciate the comment! There's a lot of competition in the robot space!

@seanl8930 9 ай бұрын

Way too expensive even with a discount. There are already robovac's out there by the way that can see cords as small as a centimeter. Come on! This doesn't even self clean like others do at this price. I've never had any trouble getting my robovac to see where it is in space either. They're asking 1800 dollars for this full price when the other brands are offering way more advanced features. Skip this and wait till it goes on sale for what it's actually worth.

@vacuumnerds 9 ай бұрын

It's on the expensive side, but there are even more expensive robots on the way from the big names this year if you can believe it.

@seanl8930 9 ай бұрын

@vacuumnerds they're the same price as this one from what I heard of whats coming at CES but those are discounted if you buy them now. But they offer a lot more unique features than this thing does. So as far as the bang for your buck goes from the major competitors I don't get how this stands out as you have to break your back to take care of it.
