The Kobold VR200 knows its environment very well: its unique laser scanner with ultrasound technology detects 98% of all obstacles – including mirrored or glass surfaces in the home. Please be advised that floor-to-ceiling windows and large mirrors situated at floor level could impair (yet might not disturb) navigation.
The robot vacuum cleaner stores the location of every obstacle. The height of the obstacle determines whether it goes around the obstacle or climbs over it: thanks to the robot's climbing aids, heights of up to 2 cm are a breeze. Its all-wheel drive gives it the right grip. With its crash sensors, the Kobold VR200 detects steps and gaps and avoids these easily.
