But when residents it is important to learn a lot. The robot will unerringly each cable lying in the room and knots on. Iphone charger, TV aerial cable, notebook or phone Trippe, the robot is thoroughly, finds everything - and tears it either is, or ever tried to unravel. At the first trips we have bet on whether he gives up or breaks free, exciting. That means a whole new discipline in the apartment: cable are not on the ground. Shoes with laces are kept safe, and for the bedroom: laundry does not belong on the floor ... okay maybe that's a positive side effect. With applied, sliding carpets the bot comes naturally also not clear. The insertion force and entrainment also applies to the cable of the charging station. Luigi has before building work (cable nailed to the wall) also performed before walking the charging station. Ah, the charging station please stick or jam, otherwise brings no joy. Despite the second camera which scans the illuminated with an LED floor, the bot navigates in the dark is not as safe as the day.
True restrictions prevail in thin chair legs or low horizontal bars at chairs and tables. About the ultrasonic sensors these are not detected. Thus, the robot moves or against it, then you realize only through the resistor to the engines that he did a bump. Speaking of driving over it, although it sounds a bit perverse, but small thresholds are not a problem.
Geekadvice: The robot a Linux runs. With USB flash drive, wireless dongle and a few tools which wrote the community, they even give you a web interface, can log onto the machine via SSH and play around with all the parameters. Creating Start / Stop / schedule then goes via Web. So lets look at how Luigi the apartment also imagines (the self-provided map), or it can be different cleaning times per week register, which is not possible through normal operation. On the camera you can not get through the mechanism, since the main program this constantly uses. The Community is active Stand April 2015, changes to the main program of the vacuum cleaner is not to be expected.
The dust container is neat, a flap has thus the goods are not constantly fall out and sucks even with half-full container of
Robots still good.
Conclusion, very suitable for clinical apartments for cozy shack with bedside rugs, Fringe rugs in the bathroom, cables on the floor, and thin designer chairs I would let the matter better.

Figure 3: Right from the living room, back into the bathroom, then the hallway to the front before the landing, left the room clean, take it all back home to the charging station, works independently and reliably.
