Stone Sweeping Robot T7 - new robot vacuum cleaner from Xiaomi

As you know, Xiaomi and Roborock are close partners in the production of robotic vacuum cleaners. You may have even thought that Roborock is a sub-brand of Xiaomi, but in fact it is a separate company that works closely with Xiaomi.

Stone Sweeping Robot T7 is the new robot vacuum cleaner from Xiaomi

Xiaomi and Roborock release some of the most popular robot vacuum cleaners on the market. Recently, the Chinese manufacturer announced a new model of the robot vacuum cleaner called Xiaomi Roborock Stone Sweeping Robot T7. It's a long and confusing name, so I'll call it Roborock T7.

As you can see, the design of the Xiaomi Roborock Stone Sweeping Robot T7 practically does not differ from the previous Roborock and Xiaomi robotic vacuum cleaners.
The new device has the same round white body as the Roborock S5 Max or Xiaomi Mijia 1S. In fact, it’s even difficult to tell them apart if you don’t know where to look.

The first thing to notice is the three control buttons on the top of the case. They allow you to start / stop cleaning, return the robot vacuum cleaner to the charging base and carry out local cleaning of an area of 1 sq.
The dust container is located under the top cover. A water tank and a platform with a microfiber cloth for cleaning the floors are located at the back of the robot vacuum cleaner.

By the way, the Roborock T7 has a new design for the water tank and floor cleaning system. Now you do not need to turn the robot vacuum cleaner over to remove the water tank.
The new Xiaomi Roborock Stone Sweeping Robot T7 robot vacuum cleaner received an increased dust capacity and water capacity: 460 ml and 297 ml, respectively. This is more than enough for a complete cleaning cycle without the need to clean both the dust container and the water tank.

There is only one debris brush at the bottom. Along the perimeter, as usual, bumpers and various sensors are installed to prevent collisions with furniture, walls or falling from stairs.
The physical dimensions of the robot vacuum cleaner are 353 x 350 x 96.5 mm, and the weight is 3.5 kg.

New RR Mason 7.0 algorithm

Well, it's time to talk about new features. As I said at the beginning of this article, the main update of the Xiaomi Roborock Stone Sweeping Robot T7 is the new RR Mason 7.0 algorithm.
As you know, every robot vacuum cleaner uses a smart algorithm to build a cleaning route, recognize obstacles, surfaces, etc.

The new RR Mason 7.0 algorithm has learned to recognize the presence of clothes on the floor and animal excrement. Have you seen the video where a robot vacuum cleaner drove through pets excrement and smashed them all over the apartment? Such a problem will not be with the new Xiaomi Roborock Stone Sweeping Robot T7 robot vacuum cleaner.

Stone Sweeping Robot T7 has been updated with multi-map controls 4.0. You can customize the cleaning sequence of the room, the suction power and the volume of water in the water tank, and you can set different settings for one room. For example, the master bedroom area can be selected as “low water volume + quiet mode”, the kitchen area can be set as “high water volume + max. Regime ”, and the bedroom can be cleaned at 10 am every day.

Stone Sweeping Robot T7 comes with a new cartographic approach

Multi-card management has added smart no-washing feature. The user can set the area of the carpet as the area for cleaning floors. Thus, it will automatically become invalid after removing the squeegee bracket.

In addition, Stone Sweeping Robot T7 supports automatic identification of multi-floor cards. He can memorize and edit 4 cards at the same time. When changing sexes and cleaning, the robot can automatically detect the gender, download the appropriate map and start working.
According to reports, Stone Sweeping Robot T7 will also improve suction up to 2500 Pa.This is 25% higher than the absorption of the previous generation. And its noise level is almost the same as the previous generation.

The RR Mason algorithm is the key to planning the trajectory of the robot cleaner and solving complex problems. RR Mason's “Real Time Data Management Algorithm” is responsible for managing the distribution of environmental data collected by the sensors and then passing it on to the “Percept and Display Algorithm” for data aggregation and analysis. And only then will he move on to the "navigation and movement algorithm" for dynamic navigation and planning based on the results of the analysis.

So far, Stone Sweeping Robot T7 has undergone 78 OTA algorithm updates. Based on this, the RR Mason 7.0 algorithm optimizes the zigzag algorithm. In addition, it downloads more information about obstacles when crossing rooms and recharging.

This vacuum cleaner also comes with a water tank with a peristaltic pump. It has a capacity of 297 ml. In low water mode, it can handle up to 250 square meters in one cleaning.
