Here’s Why You’ll Love Lucy
Lucy is the Trifo family’s superhero big sister, complementing her robot brother Max, with many exciting features:
- Two Cameras Are Better than One – Lucy offers both day and night surveillance via a 1080P HDR color camera and a second active depth sensor that provides night vision. With this unique combination, Lucy utilizes RGB and depth information like no other home robot for high precision position tracking, indoor mapping and super intelligent self-decision-making. It also provides unique day and night surveillance functionality on a mobile platform.
- Room-by-Room Cleaning – Lucy is the first smart home robot to recognize and divide rooms automatically. With an advanced 6-core ARM SoC, Lucy pushes the limit of accurate and efficient inference and brings edge AI to reality. In one example, if she sees a bed in a room, she will understand and label it a bedroom. Her family can designate cleaning areas through the Trifo Home App. Lucy is also Alexa-enabled and follows instructions to clean or not clean zones with “no-go” lines.
- Obstacle Avoidance (Including Pet Doo-Doo) – Most home robots cannot recognize obstacles less than 4” tall, but Lucy sees it all, down to 1”, so slippers, socks and pet accidents are visible, and Lucy avoids them. Lucy provides an advanced real-time object detection with a complicated combination of proprietary 3D geometry and 3D semantics algorithms.
- Lucy or Family-Defined Patrol Routes – Superheroes serve and protect! Through the Trifo Home App, Lucy’s family can define patrol routes among the auto-recognized rooms inside the home. Users can pin specific locations and Lucy can define optimized patrol routes and explore autonomously. Lucy is the only home robot that can understand and recognize her furry family members, alerting the family of their goings-on while away or asleep–you’ll know who’s been in the cookie jar!
- And more… Lucy’s 3,000 Pa suction allows her to effectively clean up dirt and her 5,200 mAh battery keeps powered up to 120 minutes.
