Is it really scary?Mariage of Rumba and Alexa

There is another IoT device that came to the author's house, around this memorable day, when the Japanese version of the Amazon Alexa was started.

_{[See] What was surprising that Amazon Alexa came home http:// jbpress.ISMEDIA.jp/articles/-/51827}

It is Rumba 980, the top model of the Rumba series, a robot vacuum cleaner from the US Irobot.

In fact, this is also shopping in Amazon.

By the way, the price of Rumba 980 as of November last year is about 110,000 yen including consumption tax.It's not a cheap shopping, but there was a clear reason why I decided to buy it at this time.

It seems that some of the high -end models of the "Rumba" series will support "skills" to be released at the beginning of the Alexa Japanese version.This is because multiple web articles have reported this news as almost certain information.

An unknown experience that not only controls Rumba 980 with a dedicated application, but also manipulates as a voice dialogue with Alexa.

Rumba and Alexa's Mariage were expected to be a "delight experience", far beyond the author's expectations and imagination.

The connection between Rumba and Alexa would be the one with high digital literacy, such as the readers of IoT TODAY.

First, the Wi-Fi connection is connected to Rumba and Alexa by hitting the MAC address on the management software of the Internet router in the house.

Next, search for the "skills" of Rumba from the menu of "Skill" of Alexa app, which has already been downloaded to a smartphone at the time of the introduction of Alexa, from the menu of "Skill" (a special software that extend Alexa function).

Then, if you find Rumba's "skill", just one click the setting button to enable Rumba.
