CES has a habit of shining a spotlight on subtly game-changing tech categories. Every year, alongside the headline-grabbing TVs, laptops, and smart home gadgets, there are products that don’t always get the same attention but still shape everyday life. Pool care is one of them. For years, robotic pool cleaners have promised convenience, but many still require a fair amount of hands-on effort once the cleaning is done.
At CES 2026, Beatbot is using that gap as an opportunity to rethink what modern pool care can look like. One of the global leaders in robotic pool cleaning is unveiling two new products at the show: the flagship Beatbot AquaSense X, designed to push pool automation further than before, and the Beatbot Sora 70, a model focused on dependable, everyday cleaning. Together, they show two distinct approaches to the same problem, with AquaSense X very clearly leading the charge.

Beatbot’s presence at CES this year also marks a broader shift for the company. Alongside its new products, Beatbot is unveiling an updated brand identity, featuring a refreshed logo and a new visual language. The timing reflects how expectations around pool care are evolving, as more homeowners seek outdoor technology that feels as intuitive and low-effort as the connected devices they already use inside the home.
That direction is supported by Beatbot’s rapid growth over recent years. Now one of the fastest-growing names in robotic pool cleaning, the company is backed by a large patent portfolio and a workforce that leans heavily toward research and engineering. This focus has allowed Beatbot to look beyond basic cleaning performance and spend more time refining the overall ownership experience, from daily operation to long-term maintenance.
CES has become a natural platform for that kind of message. As automation becomes more common across the home and garden, pool owners are no longer just asking whether a robot can clean effectively. They want systems that work consistently, require less supervision, and fit into a broader smart-home mindset without adding new points of friction.
This is where AquaSense X becomes central to Beatbot’s story this year. Rather than treating intelligence as an optional feature, the system is built around the idea that pool care should be largely self-managing. Cleaning, navigation, filtration, and post-cleaning upkeep are all designed to work as part of the same loop, instead of relying on the owner to step in between cycles.
