    That's useless, I wanted to see some vacuum robot that would suck all the sand and dust crap off each step, and remove any cobwebs. Seems it would be cheaper to just own as many of these as floors you think they do any decent job cleaning without a HUGE vacuum sucking that is required. Just sweeping in dirt is what these appear to do.
    Oh well, this is tech not ready for my needs.

    Not ready for anybody’s needs, it’s just an animation.

    It wopuld also seem that for the complication of a second vacuum carrier robot, you could just have one vacuum robot per floor and you get both floors cleaned at the same time with twice the vacuum bag capacity...

    A decent robot vacuum costs between $700 and $1000 so the stair crawling one might appeal to some of their customers.

    A vacuum robot carrier most likely costs at least as much as the basic vacuum robot - the way it usually is...
