The use of line laser modules is a major trend in the future of sweeper obstacle avoidance function

Based on the combination of linear laser technology and SLAM (real-time localization and map construction) intelligent algorithm, 

the sweeper can achieve fine identification of obstacles in the home environment and achieve higher cleaning efficiency and automation.

The line laser module scans the surroundings in real time

Not only that, the dual-line laser obstacle avoidance scheme used by the sweeper and the lidar technology can also establish a 3D 

model of the environment, optimize the cleaning path, and accurately avoid obstacles during the scanning process. Due to the use 

of infrared light, the human body cannot be seen with the naked eye, and this line laser can only be observed through the infrared 

camera, which is also safe for the human eye.
