When it comes to robot vacuums, the latest models all have advanced navigation, obstacle avoidance, and app connectivity. Naturally, a lot of companies in this market are looking for new ways to attract customers. Take the SwitchBot K20+ Pro for instance: it is a robot vacuum with a wheeled platform (FusionPlatform) that sits on top of it and moves things around.
The robot can move a fan, air purifier, and drinks around in your home. According to IEEE Spectrum, the platform can power a bunch of different accessories. You can also use it to remotely monitor your pets. The platform has power and USB-C ports. It also comes with a display and camera mounting hole. As the photos on the official site show, you can use this robot to deliver beer to your family or even kill viruses with a UV light. A manipulator arm for this robot is in the lab stage at this point.
