"It seems like only a few years ago that Anker made nothing more than batteries and chargers. But 15 years into its history, the company's CES portfolio continues to illustrate how much it's expanded. Among other announcements, the company has a new robot vacuum, video doorbell, outdoor light and smart lock. They're all rolling out under Anker's Eufy smart home brand. The company hopes its Eufy Clean Robot Vacuum Omni S2 will be your next robovac."
"The $1,600 device vacuums with 100 AW suction, and it mops, too. Anker claims the vac works on shag carpets up to about 2 inches (5 cm) in pile height. It has an 11.4-inch rolling mop that applies up to 15 N of downward pressure. As is increasingly common in robovacs, Omni S2 uses AI to identify floor types and adjust several factors on the fly. These include cleaning mode, suction, scrubbing force and wheel height. The machine can also generate lightly oxidizing disinfectants (a hypochlorous acid and ozone water solution) inside its tank."
"Anker also has a new doorbell, the Eufy Video Doorbell S4. It includes an AI-powered people detection feature with auto-framing. The doorbell has 3,024 x 3,024 resolution at 24 FPS and offers a panoramic (180 x 180-degree) view. You can use the doorbell in either wired or wireless mode, and it supports solar charging. The Video Doorbell S4 is scheduled to launch "later in Q1" for $280."
Anker's Eufy lineup includes the Clean Robot Vacuum Omni S2, a $1,600 unit with 100 AW suction that vacuums and mops and handles shag carpets up to about 2 inches. The Omni S2 uses an 11.4-inch rolling mop with up to 15 N downward pressure, AI to identify floor types and adjust cleaning mode, suction, scrubbing force and wheel height, and can generate lightly oxidizing disinfectants (a hypochlorous acid and ozone water solution) in its tank. Presales begin January 6 with shipping from January 20. The Eufy Video Doorbell S4 delivers 3,024 x 3,024 resolution, AI people detection with auto-framing, a panoramic 180 x 180-degree view, wired or wireless operation, solar charging, and a later-Q1 $280 launch. The Solar Wall Light Cam S4 features a 4K camera with f/1.6 aperture, 2700K–6500K color temperature range, a detachable 2W solar panel and a 10,000mAh battery. A face-scanning smart lock is also included.
