Dyson's new stain-spotting AI robovac is now available
"Dyson has abandoned the vision-based navigation system used on its earlier robovacs for lidar on the Spot+Scrub. It works alongside AI to recognize and avoid obstacles like socks and wires and uses green lasers to identify stains and determine when they've been properly cleaned."
"The Spot+Scrub's roller mop is cleaned as the robovac roams your home, and it can extend by 1.6 inches to clean closer to walls and the edges of furniture. The included dock drains and refills the Spot+Scrub's water tanks, empties its dirt bin without the use of replaceable bags, and thoroughly cleans the roller mop during a charge."
Dyson introduced the Spot+Scrub Ai Robot at IFA 2025, succeeding the 360 Vis Nav robovac with significant upgrades. The new model replaces vision-based navigation with lidar technology combined with AI to recognize and avoid obstacles. Green lasers identify stains and confirm cleaning completion. The self-cleaning roller mop extends 1.6 inches for edge cleaning. The multifunction dock drains and refills water tanks, empties the dirt bin without replaceable bags, and cleans the mop during charging. Priced at $1,199, it matches its predecessor's cost. Reviewers noted the dock's large size and questioned whether Dyson's robovacs match the quality of its traditional vacuums.
