Tweet now: Neato Botvac D7 Connected is Neato's most intelligent robot vacuum,
with new FloorPlanner, #IFTTT and best-in-class connectivity. #IFA2017
The Neato Botvac D7(TM) Connected is Neato's most intelligent and powerful model
to date. The new Neato FloorPlanner(TM) Advanced Mapping & Cleaning Technology
allows users to create a Cleaning Map of their home. The Neato Botvac D7(TM)
Connected is also launching with IFTTT compatibility, giving customers full
control over their robot vacuum with flexibility and convenience - leading the
way in the connected smart home.
After scanning the home in Discovery Mode or through a normal clean, the robot
creates the user's personalized MyFloorPlan(TM). This feature is accessible via
the Neato app. Users will then be able to set virtual "No-Go" Lines to avoid
specific areas they do not want cleaned. This ensures the robot always knows
where to clean and where not to clean, eliminating the need for any physical
barriers. The Cleaning Summary Map will show where the robot has vacuumed, as
well as any issues or obstacles that prevented a complete clean.
These new additions allow Neato robot vacuums to weave themselves seamlessly
into the connected home, allowing wider integration with Apple Watch, Neato
ChatBot for Facebook, Amazon Alexa and Google Home. The Botvac D7(TM) Connected
is updateable over-the-air to ensure its software is current with the latest
features - including increased smart home device support, and cutting edge
technology innovations that emerge from the Neato Developer Network.
"The Botvac D7(TM) Connected represents a significant step forward in the future
of the smart home. We are thrilled to launch this product, which is a
culmination of Neato's innovation and leadership in the robot vacuum market. The
Botvac D7(TM) Connected contains all of Neato's top-of-the-line features and
introduces industry-leading technology with the addition of Neato
FloorPlanner(TM)," said Giacomo Marini, Chairman and CEO at
Neato Robotics. "This follows our industry first announcement of Alexa and
Google Home integration for our Botvac(TM) connected series. The Botvac
D7(TM) Connected has been built to connect with a broader suite of connected
services, cementing Neato's place at the forefront of the SmartHome ecosystem."
Neato's patented LaserSmart(TM) technology allows the Botvac D7(TM) Connected to
map and navigate multiple rooms with ultimate precision. The new model features
robust suction, an ultra-performance filter, turbo mode and improved brush
system for the most advanced SpinFlow(TM) cleaning power and greater care around
furniture, even in the dark. The Botvac D7(TM) Connected's unique D-shape design
allows it to get deep into corners and close to walls, while it's new metallic
finish ensures the robot vacuum is even more durable, resisting scratches and
dings.
The next generation of the Neato App will be available alongside the Botvac
D7(TM) Connected at launch, offering an enhanced modern look and feel,
additional alerts and an improved cleaning summary with detailed coverage maps.
With this release, Neato's entire Connected line (Botvac D3(TM) Connected,
Botvac D5(TM) Connected and Botvac(TM) Connected) now support Amazon Alexa,
Google Home, Neato Chatbot for Facebook and IFTTT. The Botvac D7(TM) Connected
is Neato's most advanced robot vacuum, further underscoring Neato's commitment
to innovation that enhances people's lives.
