Up close with Samsung's NaviBot: a robotic vacuum cleaner

We've been spending some quality time with Samsung's Navibot SR8855 robotic vacuum cleaner

Cleaning at GoodGearGuide has been a breeze these past few days. No, we haven’t hired a janitor to keep the Test Centre clean — but Samsung lent us theirs. Allow us introduce you to the Samsung NaviBot; a sophisticated robot vacuum cleaner sent back in time to save John Connor from the T1000. Okay it wasn't really, but it will make cleaning around the home a little easier!

Fitted to the top of the Samsung NaviBot is a built-in digital camera that shoots at 30 frames per second creating a virtual map of the room that helps the vacuum cleaner cover areas that need cleaning.
