The Roborock RockMow X1 LiDAR, announced today at CES, will be launching later this year, featuring autonomous navigation, all-wheel drive, and 360-degree 3D scanning using a combination of LiDAR and Visual Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (VSLAM). Like the earlier RockMow Z1, the RockMow X1 LiDAR can handle slopes of up to 80 percent and traverse obstacles up to 3.1 inches high.
Roborock is headed outdoors. The company best known for its robot vacuum cleaners (including the recent viral one with a mechanical arm that picks up small objects) has unveiled its first robot lawnmower. In an announcement today, the company revealed three new robotic lawnmowers -- the RockMow Z1, RockMow S1, and RockNeo Q1. Each model specializes in different situations.
