In order to detect dog feces, iRobot was training a new roomba by making more than 100 pseudo poops
Imagine the engineers were making connections...
Roomba, a cleaning robot that automatically cleans the inside of your home, has finally come to work avoiding dog droppings with the new j7 and j7+.
CEO Colin Angle stresses that he created more than 100 pseudo poops and trained them with machine learning over 10,000 times.
Because dog droppings come in all shapes and sizes and are discharged onto the floor, engineers have created over 100 models. The things that appear in the video are pretty real. After training the algorithm on tens of thousands of images, the j7 and j7+ were finally able to avoid the poop.
Since the CEO himself announces it, it must be a very confident work. With this, it seems that the owner will no longer be indignant at the sight of the devastation.
Is it possible to handle other than solid?
The j7 is $649.99, and the j7+ is $849.99. My toy poodle sometimes has an upset stomach and produces brown slime.
