And the winner goes to…
From Business Wire:
Robot Corp. today announced that the iRobot Scooba(R) Floor Washing Robot has been honored with a Popular Science “Best of What’s New” Award in the Home Technology category. Scooba is the first floor washing robot designed for home use.
Each year, the editors of Popular Science select the top 100 technology innovations of the year for the “Best of What’s New” awards. These products represent a significant leap in their categories.
“‘Best of What’s New’ is the ultimate Popular Science accolade, representing a year’s worth of work evaluating thousands of products,” says Mark Jannot, editor of Popular Science. “These awards honor innovations that not only influence the way we live today, but that change the way we think about the future.”
Here is the official “Best of What’s New” page. Scooba is listed under ‘Home Tech’. The ‘Grand Award’ in that category was given to a piece of wood
So the Scooba cleans about 150 sq ft at a time, correct? If my floor space is larger than that, what happens? Does it continue to clean or does it stop and beep to let the owner know to change the water?
