For urban office workers, housework has always been a headache. High intensity work makes people hope to have more free time after work instead of being occupied by heavy housework. Naturally, various corresponding products emerge as the times require. For example, dishwashers and sweeping robots are all of these products. Not long ago, Xiaomi also launched its own sweeping robot, which shows the potential of this market.

Different from the traditional sweeping robot, the products launched by Xiaomi naturally have the characteristics of Xiaomi, such as laser navigation, APP mapping, etc., which are refreshing. However, what many people do not know is that before Xiaomi, a company launched a product with similar functions, that is, the inxni sweeping robot.

The inxni internal navigation sweeping robot bears the 11 year technical R&D and production advantages of Shenzhen Silver Star Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd., specializes in the R&D, production and sales of home service robot products, and is a leader in the domestic home service robot industry. Although its popularity is not high, its earliest navigation robot is ahead of Xiaomi.

What the author has experienced this time is Love to play computer games Let's have a look at the difference between the inxni X332 sweeping robot and the traditional sweeping robot.

Unpacking part

For a product, the outer box should be the first feeling of consumers. In addition, inxni has also done quite well in this aspect. Although the low-key outer box is not beautiful in appearance, the protection measures are quite good.

The inner box is designed with a sense of science and technology. A bright orange is very eye-catching. After all, such a design is quite rare for the floor sweeper.

The easy pull handle on the top is convenient to carry at any time, and it is also a good choice as a gift.

The internal protection measures are also in place, and the thick sponge on the edge ensures its safety during transportation. At the joint between the anti-collision strip and the host, a sponge strip is also built in for protection. The overall protection measures are in place.

All the accessories are very rich. In addition to the sweeping machine and charging port, there are replacement brushes, dust removal nets, cleaning brushes, etc., and even the screwdriver and spare screws are carefully matched. These small details can show the manufacturer's intentions. Of course, there are also the necessary manuals, warranty cards and other contents, which are neatly placed in an envelope without looking disorderly.

Different from the common charging port of the sweeper, inxni has also spent a lot of attention on the design of the charging port. The hollow design and patterns similar to the circuit diagram make it more scientific and technological, which is very consistent with the overall design style.

With the 18V1A charger, the floor sweeping robot within inxni can be charged in about 1.5h. Even if the home space is large, the cleaning work twice a day is enough.

In terms of packaging, the packaging of floor sweeping robots in inxni is quite excellent. The protective measures are reasonable, and the design of the outer package is very beautiful. It is very satisfactory whether for self use or as a gift.

Appearance details

I believe all friends who have used the sweeping robot know that the sweeping robot seems to have a very solid shape design. Although it is not ugly, it will still be aesthetic fatigue after a long time. Inxni has made many articles on the appearance. At first sight, it is hard to imagine that this is a sweeping robot product.

The orange and black color matching has a strong visual impact. The front switch design is the same as the brand logo, but also like a pair of big eyes, making the product look more like a robot. At the same time, the black part also hides the display function, which can be said to make the product more integrated.

In addition to the mirror design in the front lidar area, the other parts are all frosted surfaces. Compared with the large area smooth design of the traditional sweeping robot, it is not easy to scratch, but also easier to clean, which is quite humanized.

The air outlet of the vacuum cleaner on the back is designed in the shape of the brand logo, which not only does not affect the air outlet, but also highlights the brand image. It is a wonderful design that kills two birds with one stone.

The side has also designed a hardware switch, which is convenient to turn off when not in use. The switch is also explained in Chinese, which is simpler and easier to understand.

The bottom part is similar to the common sweeping machine. Single side brush design, roller brush, universal wheel and drive wheel, there is nothing special about the whole. The charging metal sheet is wrapped with plastic to avoid accidents during transportation.

The driving wheel has a high elastic height, which is very helpful for climbing over small obstacles.

The front universal wheel can assist steering. The large metal charging chip makes charging easier. There is also a ground lift sensor at the front, which can effectively avoid the fall of the steps.

Near the driving wheels on both sides, there are also ground release sensors to prevent falling, which avoids the risk of falling to the greatest extent.

The rolling brush part adopts the common design of front rubber brush and rear brush, which can effectively achieve a better cleaning effect. The dust collecting box is partly detachable, which is convenient for cleaning dust.

The dust collection box is equipped with a filter screen, which can effectively filter mites and large particles of dust to avoid secondary pollution. The equipped standby filter screen is convenient for cleaning and washing.

It should be said that in terms of appearance, the floor sweeping robot inside the inxni has changed the traditional appearance of the traditional floor sweeping robot. The unique product design can not only leave a deep impression, but also give people a strong sense of technology, which is more suitable for the name of its robot. Personally, I think its appearance is enough to kill all the sweeping robots on the market at present, including the Xiaomi sweeping robot just launched.

APP experience

The most attractive part of the floor sweeper launched by Xiaomi should be the APP control. However, APP control sweeper has been implemented in inxni for a long time. Let's take a look at the design of APP in inxni.

There are simple boot tutorials in the APP. Follow the tutorials to easily connect the sweeper. After the AP is connected, it can be connected by scanning the QR code at the bottom of the sweeper. The step of naming the sweeper also makes the product more user-friendly.

The animation effect of the overall APP is very strong, which makes people feel more like talking with robots. At the bottom of the main page are several commonly used operations, such as sweeping and charging, which are very convenient.

At the same time, APP can also view more information, such as cleaning map and cleaning progress, various statuses of the sweeper, and set regular cleaning. It can be said that the difference between inxni and other traditional sweepers is here. The biggest advantage of inxni is that it can check the sweeping progress at any time.

In general, the APP within inxni is basically complete in various functions, with excellent animation effects, which can be considered as well made. However, some parts still let the author a little disappointed. The biggest problem is that it cannot achieve remote control. Since it has its own wifi function, it should also be possible to achieve remote control in theory. In addition, the steps of fixed-point cleaning are slightly cumbersome, and small problems such as the inability to manually control the direction of the sweeper also make the cleaning process less fun.

Practical experience

The demand of the author for the sweeping robot is not at home, but a children's training center run by LD at home. The children's training center run by LD at home has only a few classrooms, so it seems unnecessary to ask a cleaner. But it's hard to clean yourself, so this product can just solve the problem of the author.

After each class, the floor of the classroom is still very dirty, so the author intends to simulate the classroom scene after class to test the cleaning ability within inxni. This is the most common garbage. Rubber crumbs often appear under the corner of the table.

There are also various pieces of paper. However, the paper fragments here, which are about 1 * 2cm in size and are relatively large pieces of paper, are intentionally torn down by the author to simulate the scene. They can be regarded as extreme challenges.

In addition, there may be a food bag. Although it cannot be swept by the sweeper, since the simulation is more accurate, let's see if it will affect the navigation.

Let's take a look at the overall environment. There are so many desks and chairs in the classroom that ordinary floor sweepers can hardly be used in this space. In addition to hitting the wall everywhere, the cleaning process is also very complete.

After the floor sweeping robot in inxni starts up, the time and status of the floor sweeping machine will be displayed automatically. Let's see how its sweeping work is going.

The sweeping process is shown by video, and no manual intervention and processing are conducted in the whole video process. The classroom area is about 20 square meters, and the total cleaning time is about 18 minutes. This speed is good. The 2-hour endurance can basically realize the cleaning of 130-140 square meters.

Although the floor sweeping process can not be completely collision free, the floor sweeping robot in inxni is quite good for such a complex environment. There is no manual intervention in the whole process, and it basically achieves full coverage, which is relatively satisfactory. Looking at the final cleaning map displayed by APP, we can see that the cleaning map displayed by APP is very close to the actual situation, at least in my opinion, it is completely consistent.

For some table corner positions, the floor sweeping robot within inxni did not achieve a particularly good cleaning effect, which is also evident on the APP. For example, rubber filings still exist at this table corner position, and it can be seen from the APP that this position did not achieve coverage cleaning.

Except for the corner of the table, the cleaning effect of other places is good. The ability to clean large pieces of paper is also quite strong, but eventually there is still a large piece of paper left on the ground, and there was a problem of paper falling out after being sucked in during the cleaning process.

In general, the cleaning effect within inxni is not different from that of common sweeping robots, but the advantages brought by laser navigation make it more suitable for complex working environments. For example, the terrain of the classroom is basically equivalent to the existence of a maze for ordinary sweeping robots. The sweeping robots within inxni still basically achieve full coverage cleaning, and the degree of completion is quite good.

Summary: The Xiaomi sweeping robot launched recently has brought laser navigation and APP controlled intelligent sweeping robots into people's sight, and inxni is a pioneer in this technology. No matter when the product was launched or its functions were realized, it was earlier than Xiaomi, and the appearance of the product was more beautiful, but it was limited to the promotion channels, and has not been very famous. However, good products will eventually have some repercussions in the market, and presumably with the help of Xiaomi, inxni will also get greater development. Finally, give some suggestions to the manufacturer, hoping to see more perfect products.

1) Add remote control functions, such as remote opening and cleaning. For the cat slaves, the masters can cause all kinds of dirt at home at any time. Many cat slaves have started to check the masters through the camera at any time. It would be better if they could cooperate with the cleaning function.

2) APP adds more control functions, such as controlling the front, rear, left and right directions. The use mode similar to the remote control car can bring more fun to the use of the product.

3) Increase the configuration of remote control. For the elderly at home, APP control may be too complex. Manual opening requires bending, which poses a certain health risk.
