Xiaomi Xiaowa E20

The Xiaomi Xiaowa E20 robotic vacuum cleaner will not allow you to get rid of the hated general cleaning of the apartment, but will help keep it clean on a daily basis. Moreover, both dry and wet cleaning methods.

Positioning

In operation, the vacuum cleaner relies on the readings of four optical sensors in the front circumference of the body, an integral displacement sensor, touch sensors, a gyroscope and an accelerometer. Based on the information received, the robotic cleaner draws a map of the premises, remembers the perimeter and optimizes the cleaning scheme. First, he will drive, poking his “nose” into all the walls, and then the vacuum cleaner will begin to pass the room along a Z-shaped path.

Dry and wet cleaning

Xiaomi Xiaowa E20 is able to determine the type of surface to be cleaned, adjusting the suction power to it, and perform wet cleaning of hard surfaces. Under this case, the model has a special nozzle with a rag and a built-in water tank with a capacity of 150 mL. In the dry cleaning mode, the robot first sweeps the specks with a side brush closer to the centre, after which the debris is pulled into the dust box. At the skirting board, where the most dust accumulates, the cleaning efficiency is automatically increased.

"Permeability"

Obstacles in the manner of interior sills up to 2 cm high are completely unaffected by the robot vacuum cleaner. But the model must be protected from flights of stairs. In such situations, virtual walls come to the rescue in the form of special Xiaomi magnetic tapes. Finally, it is worth mentioning that on a single battery charge, a robotic cleaner can ride around the perimeter of the room for up to 2 hours in a row. Exactly the same amount of time takes the process of replenishing the energy reserves in the battery tanks at the charging base.
