consumer robotics

Linus Tech Tips has published a video in which the presenter unboxes and tests a consumer robot he says he has wanted for ten years. The clip drew over 1.5 million likes, making it one of the most engaged-with robotics videos currently circulating. Viewers are discussing which robot it could be and whether home robotics has finally caught up to a decade of hype.

The Shark AV2501S AI Ultra robot vacuum is on sale at a $310 discount, according to Mashable's deal coverage. The markdown makes the AI-powered vacuum, which features self-emptying and mapping capabilities, notably cheaper at a time when robot vacuums are among the most sought-after smart home devices during sale events.
