LiDAR vs vSLAM: which robot vacuum navigation technology is better?

Summary

Nutrition label

77% Informative

LiDAR and vSLAM are two of the most popular navigation methods used by robovacs.

They help the robot vacuum find its way around your home in real-time via a companion app.

iRobot 's Roomba and iKaiai Roombas are among the most common navigation systems.

It doesn't require the room to be well lit to operate effectively, either. vSLAM navigation is slower and less efficient. The bot can struggle to find its way around dimly lit spaces, or rooms without clear landmarks, and navigation can be convoluted, too. The one benefit of vSLAM over LiDAR is that it doesn't require a raised central puck, so the robot can be shallower in profile, and potentially able to reach places a LiDAR -based bot cannot..
