DreameX50 MasterWhile primarily used to guide Stormtroopers around the half-finished corridors of the Death Star, the MSE-6 series “Mouse” droid was also capable of repairs and even domestic chores. It’s no match for the new X50 Dreame—though sadly for US readers, this class-leading next-generation self-cleaning robotic vacuum and mop isn’t yet available in the States. It uses the latest 360-degree DToF (Direct Time of Flight) LIDAR-style navigation to avoid Imperial clutter, and the new ProLean system can lift the unit high enough to clear doors, steps and dividers up to 2.36 inches high. It can even reduce its height to just 3.5 inches, for a quick scooch under your low furniture, and can even search the house for your pets while you’re away, and transmit a live feed to your smartphone.
