OverviewThe i-walk is a robotic add-on designed to automate the i-mop XL, converting the i-mop XL into a co-botic cleaning system. The i-walk does not operate on its own; when paired with an i-mop XL it enables automated cleaning of large areas with minimal setup (clean up to 300 m² with ~1 minute setup). For tight or hard-to-reach spaces the i-mop can still be used manually while the i-walk handles larger open areas.
Key benefits- Put the i-walk to work in under 1 minute, saving setup time.
- Combines co-botization and the i-mop XL's cleaning performance to increase productivity.
- Dries floors quickly to reduce slip accidents.
- Uses significantly less water and chemicals (up to ~70–75% less than manual cleaning), supporting greener cleaning goals.
- Alleviates repetitive tasks to reduce physical strain and improve cleaner wellbeing.
- Cleans up to 6x faster and can deliver floors up to ~90% cleaner vs traditional mopping when combined with i-mop XL.
Features- Auto Fill Mapping: Manually walk the i-walk around outer boundaries or use a QR code to define an area; the i-walk will automatically clean the space within the mapped area.
- Teach and Repeat mode: Record a cleaning path by walking the i-walk along the desired path and saving it to a QR code; repeatable automated cleaning for that area.
- Ultrasonic distance sensors: Enhanced nearby obstacle detection for safer navigation.
- TOF (Time-of-Flight) sensors: Detect both cliff/drop-off hazards and objects above the floor to prevent falls and improve navigation around obstacles.
- High-quality LiDAR (50 m range): Creates accurate environment maps for precise navigation.
- High-performance traction/fraction wheels: Provide grip and maneuverability across floor surfaces.
- Side guard bumper wheels: Help prevent damage to walls, furniture and the machine when navigating close to edges.
- Cleaning reports on-the-go: Real-time cleaning data available in the operator app to monitor cleaning coverage and performance.
- Connectivity: Wifi and optional 4G SIM card support for connectivity and reporting.
