On the increasingly fiercely competitive robot sweeping track, why did Cobos achieve its continuous leadership in technology and R&D? This question seems to be intricate and difficult to analyze. However, if you take your eyes off the complex and multiple influencing factors and focus on the process of externalizing its internal driving force into competitiveness, it is not difficult to find that Cobos' secrets are actually simple and simple.
hard core drive technology first
After years of development and evolution, the flagship model of Cobos sweeping robot has the title of "technical ceiling" in the industry. From the financial report of Cobos, we can also see that it continues to increase its investment in research and development. In 2019, the company invested 280 million yuan in research and development expenses, a year-on-year increase of 35.20%. Research and development investment is mainly used for machine vision and artificial intelligence related hardware models. Group and software algorithm development and so on. The research and development expenses in the first three quarters of 2020 have reached 215 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 30.27%, further increasing the research and development investment in the field of service robot forward-looking technology. The huge investment in research and development each year is exchanged for Cobos's solid technical barriers, which allows Cobos to better serve users while helping Cobos to be the industry leader.
Through years of technical accumulation, Cobos' current products have completed a comprehensive breakthrough from random cleaning to gyroscope path planning, LDS, SLAM, VSLAME visual navigation, AIVI artificial intelligence technology, and industry-leading dToF technology .Starting from the previous generation of sweeping robot Dibao T8, Cobos has applied its self-developed TrueDetect 3D obstacle avoidance technology based on structured light technology and 3D imaging algorithms to its products. In terms of navigation technology, Cobos has added dToF technology to the exclusively developed TrueMapping global planning technology. The new product T9 is based on the previous generation of technology research and development platform, the upgraded TrueDetect 3D 2.0, the detection accuracy is more than 10 times higher than the infrared sensor used in most sweeping robot products on the market, and more precise planning also helps users bid farewell to entanglement and collision. , Stuck and other problems. Similarly, TrueMapping 2.0 is 4 times higher than the LDS technology commonly used by other brands of similar products in scanning and mapping accuracy, and the scanning coverage is increased by 2 times, providing users with a more intelligent whole-house strategic cleaning solution.
is not just the latest flagship product. As a company in the industry that has explored the field of household robots for many years, at the beginning of the birth of Cobos, the brand genes of innovative technology are deeply embedded in each of its products. As the first domestic company to develop robot vacuum cleaners, each generation of products firmly grasps the core competitiveness and takes technological development as the foundation, so that every step of product innovation can promote the evolution and development of the entire robot vacuum industry.
focus on pain points, R&D and innovation
dToF technology is often only used in aerospace-grade precision instrument technology, and Cobos, as the first company in the industry to apply this technology to the navigation system of sweeping robots, is continuing It maintains an absolute leading position in related technical fields. As the industry leader, Cobos has entered the deep water zone of technology and R&D innovation. For how to grasp the direction of technological exploration in the deep water area, Cobos also gave its own answers through its own products.
was affected by the epidemic last year, and people's consumption habits and consumer demand have also changed, especially the increasing demand for health, disinfection, and sterilization products. In this context, Cobos launched a new anti-bacterial Dibao N8 sweeping and mopping integrated robot. The addition of a disposable anti-bacterial wet mop empowers the sweeping robot with new functions and experiences; many brands of cleaning products on the market only provide less than 2000Pa The suction power produces 80 to 90dB noise,Sometimes not only the sweeping is not clean, but it even disturbs the peaceful home environment. In response to this scenario, Cobos independently developed a blue whale cleaning system with hurricane suction. The suction power of 3000Pa is 50% higher than most products on the market; and the OZMO Pro2.0 high-frequency vibration wiping system, cleaning power While strengthening, the noise has been reduced by a factor of two.
The products mentioned above are all born in keeping with the needs of users. As Cobos CTO Wu Mouxiong said in an interview before, "The first step is to find the user’s pain points and solve them quickly to stay ahead. fundamental". The answer given by Cobos has been proven through the inspections of successive generations of products and the market. Over the years, Cobos has continuously promoted generations of products that can be regarded as industry benchmarks to the market, and has been loved and trusted by consumers. This achievement just proves that Cobos insists on "user first" as the core The R&D strategy is already on the right path.
The upgrade of product experience is inseparable from the rich experience accumulated by Cobos in the field of intelligent robots, as well as the accurate user demand insight ability.
