TwinAI Dodge Obstacle Avoidance
Don’t worry about having to move your furniture or avoid the robot vacuum – the Narwal Freo Z Ultra can easily navigate around any obstacles in its path with its advanced obstacle avoidance feature. It is equipped with two 1200p RGB cameras with 136-degree ultra-wide viewing angles, allowing it to see humans, large pets, tiny toys, and even dark plastic bags. With dual AI chips, it can quickly detect over 120 household objects in real-time with millimeter-level precision, making split-second decisions. Its sensors also enable it to clean within less than 1 cm of obstacles, including cables and table legs, for comprehensive cleaning coverage. The Freo Z Ultra can intelligently detect pet feces and avoid them at a safe distance to prevent spreading messes.
Real-Time Adjusted Cleaning Strategy
Certainly! Here’s the revised text:The Narwal Freo Z Ultra is not your average robot cleaner. Unlike most smart robot cleaners that clean floors without distinction, this one can detect and identify messes. It adjusts its cleaning mode accordingly for efficient and thorough cleaning. Thanks to its advanced Real-Time Adjusted Cleaning Strategy, this device can quickly tell the difference between dry dirt and wet messes. It increases suction and switches to vacuum-only mode for dry debris to prevent it from sticking to the mop. For wet spills, it shifts to mop-only mode to avoid spreading. When it encounters heavy dirt, the Freo Z Ultra applies precise, targeted cleaning with intense focus on the affected area until the mess is completely gone. This feature helps prevent the spread of bacteria and bad smells around the house.
AI-Adaptive Hot Water Mop Washing and Drying
Make sure your hands are clean and your mop is sanitized and dry with Narwal’s smart mop cleaning system. The advanced AI DirtSense™ technology examines particles in the wastewater and adjusts the washing and drying temperatures at the base station for targeted mop cleaning based on the type of dirt detected. For regular dirt and milk powder, a simple wash at 45°C/113°F is sufficient, while oily dirt requires a thorough wash at 60°C/140°F. A hot 75°C/167°F pasteurization process is then applied to eliminate any remaining bacteria, followed by drying the mop at a warm 40°C/104°F. All of these processes occur without any human intervention, offering peace of mind that your smart robot won’t spread harmful bacteria while cleaning the floor.
Advanced EdgeSwing™️ And Baseboard Cleaning
The Narwal Freo Z Ultra shines in tackling edges and corners with its advanced EdgeSwing™ Cleaning technology. It maintains 7-12N downward pressure and adjusts its cleaning angle with accurate twists along walls and baseboards. The Reuleaux triangular scrubbing mops enhance coverage and fit snugly into corners, ensuring a thorough clean. The optional kick-board module uses electrostatic force to attract and remove dust from baseboards, achieving exceptional 3D cleaning.
Ultra Quiet and Maintenance-free Station
Narwal’s Maintenance-Free & Quiet Self-Empty Station ensures ultra-quiet, hassle-free upkeep. Give your ears and mind a break with the Narwal Freo Z Ultra’s quiet and efficient operation. Operating at 55-58dB—half the industry average noise level—the robot vacuum cleans without distracting you or your family. With a large 2.5L dustbin bag and dust compression, you only need to empty the bag once every 120 days. Additionally, hot air drying at 45°C kills bacteria inside the bin, while Dynamic Electrolyzed Water Sterilization ensures safety when it’s time to dispose of the dirt. The base station, operating at a noise level of just 71 dB during dust collection, further contributes to a peaceful environment.
Superior Vacuuming and Mopping Performance
In addition to its intelligent features, the Narwal Freo Z Ultra is also equipped with the power to make cleaning any floor a breeze. Its industry-leading 12,000 Pa hyper suction power is no match for dirt, sucking up more than 99% of solid particles with ease. Despite spinning at a rate of 4,400 rpm, the innovative Zero Tangling Floating Brush 2.0 isn’t just ultra-quiet but also remains tangle free thanks to its Single-Sided Balancing Design. And thanks to its excellent vision, it can quickly differentiate different floor types and carpets, raising the mop as high as 12mm to avoid getting your fabrics wet while also applying the right amount of suction or mopping pressure to effectively clean any kind of flooring or material you might have.
Pet-Friendly Cleaning Mode
The Narwal Freo Z Ultra’s Pet-Friendly Cleaning Mode is designed to ensure a stress-free environment for your furry friends by detecting and avoiding areas where pets are resting or playing, preventing any disturbances. It first focuses on cleaning other parts of the home, then waits until pets have moved before tackling their spaces. Once pets are out of the way, the robot performs a thorough clean of these areas, effectively removing fur and debris to keep your home clean.
Intelligent Navigation System
Since floors are dynamic, ever-changing spaces, robot vacuums must be able to accurately navigate the maze of furniture, objects, and pets that lie in their path. With its cutting-edge LiDAR SLAM 4.0 technology, the Narwal Freo Z Ultra makes short work of scanning the room and creating its ideal path, taking no more than 6 minutes to quickly map the floor. It can create a 3D map of the objects on the floor for a more precise and accurate view of the world around it, and it can store multiple floor maps for more complex house layouts. Of course, you can also set up No-Go Zones, and it will even smartly recognize areas that your pet frequents in order to clean those more thoroughly as needed.
