RobotShop Feeds  In This Issue...  iCLEBO Arte Robot Vacuum Promotion  More Recent Articles  Search RobotShop Blog iCLEBO Arte Robot Vacuum Promotion RobotShop is offering a promotion on the iCLEBO Arte Robot Vacuum while supplies last. With the puchase of this robot you will receive a free accessory package including 2 Microfiber Mops, 10 HEPA Filters and 2 Side Brushes (L and R). This is a $50 value and comes absolutely free with purchase on top of the standard accessories that come with the robot. The iCLEBO Arte is a very intelligent robot for it’s price. It integrates triple CPUs and sensors that detect its environment 200 times per second. Then the navigation algorithm goes through a rigorous analysis 10,800 times per second and 24 frame recording that is identical to movement in nature. It has vision mapping similar to the Neato robot vacuums but, uses camera recognition that is similar to moving and seeing with human eyes. iClebo Arte iCLEBO Arte always returns to where it started with its highly advanced navigation algorithm. If it starts from the door of a room, instead of the charging station, it cleans the room neatly and returns to the door in order to resume from where it left off initially. Thanks to such superior algorithm technology, cleaning under furniture such as beds and sofas, is now possible and the robot will not stop in hard to reach areas. The iCLEBO Arte can also be equipped with microfiber mops that can be attached to the bottom of the robot for wet mop cleaning. There is no need to remove the robots brush in order to mop. iCLEBO Arte can perform wet mop cleaning and vacuum suction simultaneously for higher efficiency and effectiveness. It is therefore the best time to buy your iCLEBO Arte and have accessories ready to keep your robot cleaning healthily for several months.       • Email to a friend • Article Search • View comments • Track comments • More Recent Articles Litter-Robot II Basic Troubleshooting Guide UAV Flights / Restrictions / Suggestions Robo Sapiens: Witnessing the Evolution of the Human Race An Introduction to FlowBotics' Phidgets Apps New FlowBotics Apps for Phidgets Products     Click here to safely unsubscribe from "RobotShop Blog."
