NEW ROBOT TECHNOLOGY ON DISPLAY

Robotic intelligence comes home as ECOVACS officially launches its latest AI-powered floor cleaning robot, the DEEBOT OZMO 960, during CES 2019. This is ECOVACS's first AI-powered robot, which features Artificial Intelligence and Visual Interpretation or AIVI. AIVI enables DEEBOT OZMO 960 to learn from its daily cleaning tasks and recognize selected household obstacles lying around the floor such as cables, shoes, socks, and charging docks. This means users will no longer have to worry about picking up items prior to running the vacuum because DEEBOT will completely avoid all obstacles. This advanced capability is achieved through a built-in camera that works with the robot's radar to detect, identify, and avoid any obstacles in its path. Additional features of DEEBOT OZMO 960 include SMART NaviTM 3.0 and OZMO functionality. Smart NaviTM 3.0 uses laser mapping technology to map the home in order to program the most effective cleaning path for the robot. Users can select areas to be cleaned and create virtual boundaries right from the ECOVACS app. Further, they can schedule cleanings and review how the previous one was completed from the visual map on their smartphone. OZMO functionality allows DEEBOT OZMO 960 to offer both vacuuming and mopping capabilities in one single robot. During the mopping process, DEEBOT will avoid carpets and mop other areas, utilizing its carpet detection technology. ECOVACS is committed to putting customer data and privacy first. The new AI Innovation, AIVI, can work offline by referring to pre-installed data to recognize selected objects. Unless users choose to "opt-in," AIVI does not record any images or videos, and personal data and images will never be sent back to ECOVACS or to third parties. This ensures that user data and privacy are completely safeguarded. For more information, visit www.ecovacs.com/us.
