IFA 2025 Highlight: MAMMOTION’s Tri-Fusion Positioning System takes its robot lawn mowers to the next level

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-10-11 11:30:05

Stephen Schenck / Android Authority Robot mowers may seem like a niche product, but the amount of time you save and the physical labor you avoid from not having to mow your own lawn can’t be stated enough. It started with low-powered devices that would get stuck on slopes and required physical boundaries that were difficult to install. But these robots have evolved exponentially since, with current generation robot mowers able to navigate using virtual boundaries and handle different types of t

People Are Back-Flipping Off of Waymo’s Robotaxis

gizmodo.com Riley Gutiérrez Mcdermid 2025-10-11 11:30:17

In a bizarre (or hilarious) late-night episode that underscored public unease with autonomous vehicles, several men climbed onto stalled Waymo robotaxis in San Francisco’s Marina District and began attacking them. They then started sitting and climbing on them, and are one point began doing back flips off the driverless cars while a crowd cheered. City police eventually cleared the scene, but the incident highlights growing tensions over deployments of robotaxis in urban areas. So what happen

Roborock is one of the better-known companies if you’re looking to buy a robot vacuum. Options range from the capable Qrevo Curv to the innovative Saros Z70, which comes with a mechanical arm and a handsome price to match.

Elon Musk's New Robot Demo Is Astonishingly Bad

Hot off of proudly announcing that he had replaced 4,000 people with AI at his company, Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff posted a video of Tesla's humanoid robot, Optimus, calling it a "productivity game-changer." However, going by the 52-second clip, the carmaker has a long way to go until it can successfully have AI-powered bipedal robots replace human jobs. Is this really what will make up a whopping 80 percent of Tesla's value, as Tesla CEO Elon Musk promised in a tweet earlier this week? In an

The Dreame X50 Didn’t Just Mop My Floors -- It Outsmarted My Furniture

CNET's key takeaways No robot vacuum has truly solved the challenge of multilevel cleaning without requiring you to physically move it between floors. This robo-vac can do it, for the high-end price of $1,700. You won't find another robot vacuum with its features for less than $1,000 right now. The whole point of owning a robot vacuum is so you don't have to do the cleaning yourself. But that was never the case at my house -- partly because of what I call my "Ikea chair challenge."
