Release Date:2026-09-18 Page View:96 

The Mini Hippo engineering team built a compact autonomous sweeper and completed mobile app operation, site mapping, voice control, and indoor and outdoor cleaning trials. The tests cover device connection, on-site mapping, and multiple autonomous cleaning tasks.

Mobile App Operation

The mobile app displays device status, connects to the sweeper, supports manual directional control, and allows users to plan a cleaning area before mapping and autonomous operation begin.

On Site Mapping

Engineers map and test the actual work area. The system identifies environmental boundaries and generates an area map for autonomous route planning and cleaning tasks.

Voice Controlled Cleaning Modes

Voice commands activate full-area cleaning, spot cleaning, and edge cleaning. The sweeper follows each command and operates autonomously across indoor and outdoor areas.
