For those who are into robot vacuum cleaners, Neato Robotics has just unveiled their new robot vacuum cleaner, the Neato XV-12, which is the successor to the Neato XV-11 for those who remember.

It does not appear that the XV-12 has seen much upgrades from the XV-11, apart from its new coat of paint, which comes in a “misty white” color. Much like its predecessor, the XV-12 will feature scuff-free navigation, which basically employs the use of lasers to update its internal map and is said to be able to detect furniture so that it can clean around them, as opposed to bumping into them and possible leaving dents or scratches.

It will also be able to return to its charging base when it is done cleaning, and for users who are too busy to remember to deploy the vacuum cleaner, they will be able to set up a cleaning schedule depending on their preference. The Neato XV-12 will be available come 16th October from Target and will set you back $399.99.

Army enlists robotic car for bomb squad

It might seem to be all guts and glory when you sign up for Uncle Sam, but those who return from the battlefield will tell you that what you see on the silver screen is scripted – everything else when you’re there in person is a totally different dimension. You can never quite tell when a bomb might go off anytime, and in what form it would come in. Well, one thing’s for sure – the military has tried their best so far to stop insurgent bombs but to no avail, they still go off from time to time.

Guess a robotic car might have a better chance in the effort to prevent any more unnecessary deaths, inspired by the ‘Hoff’s 1980s classic, Knight Rider. 5D Robotics from California recently picked up a contract to develop an interface with an “intelligent” unmanned car which is said to “effectively perform improvised explosive device defeat (IEDD) tasks remotely.”

Sounds as though this might be a precursor to what Bumblebee or Ironhide is – after all, aren’t those Transformers super intelligent beings that a bomb shouldn’t be able to be too much trouble to defuse?
