Since August, the 3rd generation of this robot project is completed. This is the last version of the vacuum robot, which brings the project to an end. The new vehicle looks quite similar to Gen2, there are only a few improvements:


- More accurate determination of the battery level
- Greater distance between floor and housing. This allows the robot to crawl on carpets.
- 4S lithium-ion batteries with battery management system for more safety
- Own battery charger


I have gained a lot of experience from the development of these robots. I will now use this experience for a new robotic vacuum cleaner with new challenges. I have already been working on the design of the new robot for several weeks and developed a 2d-lidar solution. 

More information will be published in a new project entry when the time comes.
