The Neato Botvac D7 Connected cleans large spaces efficiently and dependably. It picks up dirt, hair, and allergens for the deepest clean you can get.
Neato CEO Matt Petersen, comments, “We believe our new flagship robot, the Neato Botvac D7 Connected, is a significant step forward for the in home robotic vacuum market. The Botvac D7 Connected comes with Neato FloorPlanner™, and features the coveted ‘No-Go’ Lines functionality. What’s most exciting is that future software enhancements will relentlessly keep improving the way the robot vacuum performs and interacts with consumers. Our mission at Neato, is to create products that seamlessly fit into customers' lives, and that’s why we continue to innovate to deliver on this goal. At Neato we are constantly looking at how we can work harder to understand consumers’ needs, to create products that solve real problems, and give them cleaner healthier homes.”
With the Botvac D7 Connected, we also are introducing Neato FloorPlanner, our exclusive technology that enables users to set virtual ‘No-Go’ Lines to tell the robot where not to go. No-Go Lines, which can be set-up using a smartphone, remove the need for any physical barriers, and are especially useful to tell the robot to avoid children’s play places, temporary holiday decorations, pet areas, or other locations where the robot should not clean. Overall, this provides a new level of freedom for the user to achieve a convenient and careful clean every day.
Neato’s patented LaserSmart™ technology allows the Botvac D7 Connected to navigate through multiple rooms with incredible precision, even in the dark. The new Botvac D7 Connected features robust suction, an ultra-performance filter, turbo mode and improved brush system for the most advanced SpinFlow™ cleaning power. Only Neato robot vacuums use this intelligent technology, with its unique D-shape design to do deliver a deep, efficient clean in less time than other robots.
The Botvac D7 Connected can be controlled by the Neato App for iOS and Android, which offers a modern look and feel, alerts and a cleaning summary with detailed Coverage Maps, so users can see exactly where the robot vacuum has cleaned. In addition, the Apple Watch and Android Wear devices are supported.
With Neato’s SmartLife™ integration, the Botvac D7 Connected can also be controlled with voice assistants including Amazon Alexa and Google Home. Wider integration and control is also possible through IFTTT, Neato Chatbot for Facebook.
