"The concept, called the Cyber X, was previewed last year at IFA in Berlin. The vacuum sports a somewhat terrifying set of legs with rubber treads that allow it to autonomously navigate multi-story environments. While Dreame has previously shown off vacuums that can move up smaller steps, it says the Cyber X can climb stairs up to 25cm (9.8 inches) high and slopes up to 42 degrees."
"In addition to its legs, the Cyber X also has a built-in water tank to support mopping abilities, and a laser-powered navigation system to help it maneuver up stairs and around other obstacles. It also has a braking system that allows it to stay stable on floors and stairs, even if the battery dies. We haven't been able to see it in action yet, but Dreame is expected to show off its abilities at its CES booth."
Dreame's Cyber X prototype uses articulated legs with rubber treads to climb and descend stairs up to 25 cm and tackle slopes up to 42 degrees. The device can handle both straight and curved staircases and can climb a flight of steps in roughly 27 seconds. It incorporates a built-in water tank for mopping, a laser-powered navigation system for obstacle awareness, and a braking system that keeps it stable even if the battery dies. Cyber X is presented as a research prototype with no production timeline. Dreame also announced the X60 Max Ultra, priced at $1,699, which clears steps up to 8.8 cm.
