Overview

• Dyson's CleanTrace AR tool integrates with the Gen5detect vacuum, displaying cleaned areas in real-time on a smartphone.
• The AR feature is designed to address common issues like overestimating cleaning time and repeatedly missing spots.
• CleanTrace will be compatible with LiDAR-equipped smartphones and is expected to add an element of fun to routine cleaning tasks.
• Research indicates that most vacuuming sessions are under 10 minutes, contrary to the average self-reported duration of 24 minutes.
• The tool was inspired by the precise navigation of Dyson's robot vacuums, aiming to bring similar efficiency to manual cleaning.
