The basic models of smart vacuum cleaners work on a “bump and go” principle by which they clean a space, run into an obstacle, change course to clean another area, and repeat the process if they come in contact with another obstruction. This means that these devices could knock over delicate furniture and décor or get tangled in cords and clutter on the floor. In addition, they cannot avoid areas you don’t want them to enter, such as a pet’s corner or a baby’

Ideally, they utilise smart mapping technology to find their way back to their chargers and dock, even if you live in a big house or a smaller place in downtown. Yet, when a smart vacuum gets lost, it becomes a real i
