It is 9 years since Xiaomi started launching products under the MIJIA platform. We may have lost count of the products but the brand identity is so strong that almost every product turns out to be popular. The MIJIA Robot Vacuum series is a good example. First launched a few years, the original version has remained popular and a hot-selling product despite having a couple of successors. Xiaomi has now launched yet another successive model dubbed MIJIA Robot Vacuum Cleaner 1C. The gadget is already available to pre-order on Xiaomi Mall for 1299 yuan ($183).

The MIJIA Robot Vacuum Cleaner 1C  is equipped with a built-in smart electronic control water tank and has a superb 2500Pa suction power. The improvements on the new robot Vacuum Cleaner extends right from the navigation system as the model is equipped with a high-speed visual navigation system which facilitates the collection of feature points at a speed of 30,000/s. This helps to quickly capture coordinate information, extract complex spatial features, and create faster and more accurate maps. The visual navigation teams up with a  dual gyroscope and the optical flow sensor with multiple auxiliary positioning. So it can obtain the position information more accurately and completely.MIJIA Robot Vacuum Cleaner 1C

It also uses a professional Omnivision camera sensor to simulate the neural network algorithm. Combined with a path calculation speed of 50 times/second, the robot can maintain a dynamic survey during the journey. This brings precision, accuracy and efficiency to the map drawing.

Talking of the hardware, the Mijia Robot Vacuum cleaner is powered by a CortexTM-A7 Quad-core data processing chip as well as a Dual-core Mali-400 Image Processing Unit. It also deploys the VSLAM algorithm which gives it more computing power. It can locate the exact position of the robot in real-time and intelligently draw the working path. For suction, it uses a Japanese powerful brushless motor of NIDEC with strong suction of 2500Pa. This is higher than the suction power of the MIJIA Robot Vacuum cleaner Laser Detection Version that was launched recently with 2100Pa suction power. MIJIA Robot Vacuum Cleaner 1C

Furthermore, the MIJIA Robot vacuum cleaner is equipped with a 200ml smart electronically-controlled water tank. The water output during operation is automatically controlled when the vacuum cleaner is working. This keeps the floor protected and the water is used smartly and economically.MIJIA Robot Vacuum Cleaner 1C

Also crammed inside the round fuselage are 15 different high-precision sensors. The sensors allow the robot vacuum to be better adapted to the environment, avoid falling, collision and obstacles, among other functions.
