After all, is everyone cleaning windows awkward?I tried using the popular window robot vacuum cleaner "HOBOT-2S"
This is an article of another project edited and written by the commerce team of Mediagene Co., Ltd., to which Gizmodo Japan belongs.
Would you like to leave the window cleaning next to the floor?
"HOBOT-2S", which is gaining popularity on its sister site machi-ya, is a robot that can automate window cleaning with simple steps. The window version of the floor robot vacuum cleaners such as Roomba may be easy to understand.
Since I was able to borrow a sample, I tried using it at my house last time, but this time I will deliver an additional report that I tried using it other than window cleaning!
You can clean the windows while doing something
Seeing is believing, so please take a look here first.
After turning on the power, just bring it close to the window and it will stick to it, so you can start cleaning the window with just one tap.
Since the frame cannot be overcome, it is necessary to re-install each window, but basically the window cleaning is completed without doing anything.
It is a product that can be called a time-saving home appliance because it can handle leisure time such as work and reading, or other household chores at the same time.
If you connect the power cable and turn on the main switch, it will start with a vacuum cleaner-like suction sound.
The procedure after that is just pasted on the window as shown at the beginning.
There is also a fall prevention safety device and an auxiliary rope, so at first I was thrilled if it wouldn't fall, but once I got used to it, I was able to see it with confidence.
This is a view of the movement from the back. It moves smoothly with the caterpillar.
The cleaning procedure is to turn off the spray function that sprays water and cleaning liquid, and wipe the entire window dry first.
After wiping dry, replace the cleaning cloth, turn on the spray function, and wipe with water.
You can easily turn on / off the spray function and operate the main unit with the attached remote control and application (compatible with iOS / Android OS).
Also active in cleaning the bathroom
In addition to windows, it can be used for smooth walls such as marble and tiles, so I tried using it in the bathroom.
It was a wall with more obstacles than flat windows, but it was moving dexterously while detecting obstacles.
In addition, if there is a lot of humidity, the adsorption force to the wall surface will decrease and the risk of falling will increase, so refrain from using it immediately after bathing.
This is a scene of cleaning the wall next to the bathtub.
It attacked to the very limit of the bathtub, so it seems that there will be less leftovers.
The app is also simple
"HOBOT-2S" can also operate the application.
Easy to use because it is a simple UI that looks like a physical remote control dropped on the screen as it is
Localization was well supported, and there was no unclear Japanese that is common in overseas apps.
By the way, although it is not a required setting item, it also had a naming function.
The appearance of cleaning the windows with all your might looks like a pet, so please give them a name and treat them with attachment (laughs).
Dirty cleaning cloth can be easily washed with a washing machine.
As long as it doesn't get very dirty, you can wash it and use it repeatedly, so it's kind to your wallet.
The window cleaning robot "HOBOT-2S" that can automate the awkward window cleaning is currently conducting a great campaign on the crowdfunding site machi-ya.
At the time of writing, it was possible to order from 38,544 yen (tax and shipping included), which is 12% off, so if you are interested, please check the details from the link below!
