It has been a couple of years ago that Dyson reported that they were working on a robotic vac (DC06). Soon after the great news they informed the world with the following:
"Given current technologies, it is impossible to achieve high pick-up performance without pushing the cost of the machine above acceptable levels. Therefore Dyson will not be releasing this model at the present time."That was back in mid 2005 but since then technology seems to have caught up with Dyson's engineers and they have recently posted the following at their site:
"Dyson engineers are researching robotics, but it takes time. We could have launched DC06 and heralded it as the first robotic vacuum cleaner. It has three onboard computers, 2,000 electronic components, 27 separate circuit boards and 70 sensory devices. As robots go, it's highly advanced. More so in fact than robot vacuums available today. But we want one that cleans properly and guides itself more logically than a human would. A truly autonomous machine, rather than a glorified carpet sweeper. Propulsion and battery life will be key. And we're getting closer."

It's a perfect vacuum cleaner vacuum, I love this machine
