I am thoroughly impressed with the features of this robot. Idk why it isn’t being talked about more but it really does have the most features on the market. In the future, I would love to see two integrated upgrades. 1. The docking station to be a dehumidifier and air purifier so that the robot can be ran off recycled water. 2. The ability to connect it to a drain to enable self emptying of the dirty water to make the robot completely automated. I really do hope the robot’s features are able to deliver as I am really looking forward to this robot!
I'll probably never afford something like this but just came here to stay this is freaking awesome and I really hope y'all succeed with this because you really deserve it
This is great! I especially love the joystick feature for those times you need just a specific area cleaned. Can we see some video of how it works on carpet? We've seen lots of bare floor, but no carpets so far. Thanks!
Have no worries-Ascender is designed to excel on carpets, especially considering its focus on the US and European markets where carpets are widely used. Next month, we'll unveil more videos showcasing its carpet cleaning prowess. Keep an eye out; our Kickstarter campaign is set to launch shortly!
The height is first coarsely graded estimated by the vision algorithms. Then the bottom and front ToF sensors (both on the body of Ascender not the legs) help to determine the stair climbing actions.

For vacuum, the side brushes helps to get the debris in corners. As for the mopping functionality, there's a 4cm x 4cm area that remains unreachable because of the unique leg structure designed for stair climbing. If corner mopping is a priority for you, you might want to consider the latest models from Roborock and Dreame. However, it's worth noting that they also leave a 3cm x 3cm corner area uncleaned due to the round shape of their mopping pads.
@@MigoRoboticsthat's awesome! I would love to see more of it going up and down, not just up. This is a game changer product. I look forward to seeing more advancements. Please reach out if product testing is needed
Very unique robot vaccum no doubt! Would you be able to show us th Ascender operating outside the cloud? Ideally, in Valetudo and/or HA. Also, can you give us an indication of battery autonomy at medium powered. Many thanks
Super cool if it works off course. Have a suggestion: Could you make something like near proximity bluetooth so in the future one or you guys could make a door opener that opens the door when the vacuum robot gets near? That way you dont have to work with silly looking hatches (which cats/dogs can escape through as well) as the robot is doing its full cleaning passes
I love it. I just would like to see it on those turning and cornering narrow steps, like a cake. As you go up it gets slimmer and slimmer. How would it climb and clean and not fall down? Thanks!
New video will be released tonight. And here is the answer I copied: Spiral stairs + Narrow space + Open/No riser is the most challenging use case for Ascender. First, if you have a 40cm x 15cm space on the stair, then Ascender can climb up/down without issues, regardless if it is a normal or spiral staircase. Previously we occasionally saw failure when the stair was open or without riser, as Ascender couldn't see the next step. This issue is largely resolved after we integrate the front ToF sensor's data into the motion controller. Currently, our AI/Vision team is developing a lite model to further improve the detection accuracy and reliability (you can think of it as a dual fail-safe). Rest assured, delivering a machine that fails to climb stairs, when its key innovation is precisely 'stair climbing,' is simply not an option for us.😎
Yes, going down is simply the reverse procedure of going up stairs. We have several video clips in this channels include the "going down" part of Ascender.
I think the concept is good and love the ability to vacuum different floors. How many floors will it be able to save? I would love to see a video of you testing the robot vacuum on an area with dirt along the edge and in the corners. It would be interesting to see how well it manages to clean these areas. A feature that I miss in other robot vacuum cleaners is the option to choose to vacuum only the edge. It would be convenient to be able to send the robot to vacuum the edge in the kitchen, for example, without having to interrupt it when it has made a lap around the entire room.
Thank you for your interest! Actually there is no limits regarding how many floors to save. But we have only tested up to 6 floors during our lab performance calibration. Regarding the edge cleaning performance, you can check our previous video. Thank you.
This is absolutely sick I can’t believe you guys have created something i need. Most of the robot vacuums require some help even though it says its manual, however this vacuum has all the features i want and it’s completely auto!
Apologies for the confusion and great observation! The machine was in testing mode when the video was taken, with no smoothing applied to its path planning. This allowed us to closely examine the machine's movements. Once path smoothing is activated, the jittering observed will be eliminated. Rest assured, Lidar-based path planning is a matured solution today, and Ascender employs it effectively!
Hi, I just checked. We have pictures of NORMAL pet poop in our dataset, and the accuracy ratio for this category is currently at 90% or higher. But in the case of puddles or if pets have diarrhea issues, we strongly recommend double-checking rather than relying solely on Ascender.

Okay... This bot is getting really interesting! In app ordering of consumables is also very neet. Something I really miss now with my Xiaomi. It will be a instant buy for me if the device is easily serviceable and replacement parts available. Schematics/service-manual would nice as well
Ascender is a great invention brought to fruition by Migo Robotics. I wish you all the best success with the product. My question for you is: Do you have a video of Ascender going upstairs and downstairs cleaning a carpeted staircase for those of us whose homes have them? That's what I would like to see demonstrated. Thanking you in advance.
Yes, Ascender excels on carpeted stairs, specifically designed with markets like North America and Europe in mind, where carpeting is prevalent in homes. Keep an eye out-our marketing team is gearing up to release more videos showcasing Ascender in carpeted settings.

Wondering if the battery is strong enough to clean 2 floors. Since I have 4 different brands of vacuum and mopping robots, none of them can complete 1 floor in one charge.
Is this going to be available to the uk, and if so how much? We were planning to purchase the eufy x10 being released later this month but this would be better for our multi floor household
Yes, it will be available in the UK. The campaign launch on March 21st (5 days later) on Kickstarter, please check our landing page and register on Kickstarter to get the launch special: $799 for the first 1000 units. But unfortunately, the estimate delivery for Ascender is this July. So if you want an immediate solution, eufy X10 is a decent choice :)
Love it and its innovative shape. But I couldn't not notice how it just cleaned the first step of the stairs and then just started climbing without cleaning lol. In my opinion, the app MUST have a feature such as "when crossing the stairs, clean them only once per week" or something like that, to mitigate the fact that it would take it an eternity to climb the stairs if each time it also cleaned each step, while at the same time you don't want to just send it to different floors just climbing the stairs and never cleaning them. Have you thought about a proper feature to create a nice UI to implement something like this in the app? :)
Great observation! Initially, we programmed the robot to clean each stair, but found it overly time-consuming for video recording. Consequently, we've temporarily disabled this feature via the app after the first stair. As for your request for customizable stair cleaning settings, rest assured, it's already on our feature roadmap. This functionality will be fully operational and ready for you by the time Ascender is delivered. Stay tuned, our campaign will launch soon on Kickstarter!
LOL, Facebook (now known as Meta) remains the world's largest social platform and the second biggest advertising ecosystem. With 4 billion active users, Meta engages almost half of the Earth's population! We have a small marketing team in LA, consisting of two administrators and one engineer, handles our Facebook customer service. With our engineer on vacation this week, we've chosen to temporarily pause new applications. However, once you join the FB group, we promise a 12-hour response time for all your questions and feedback, right up until the product is delivered to you.Thank you for your understanding!
The Ascender can handle the cleaning on open stairs without any problems. It is equipped with an HD camera, a high-precision LiDAR, and 6 ToF sensors including cliff sensors, ensuring unparalleled navigation and safety.
I really was hoping it would clean the stairs where I get lots of dust. I have a robot vacuum upstairs and downstairs already. What I’m missing is a robot vacuum that can clean the stairs too.
UPDATE US please where is it now and if there is no more campaign when it does come to the market, sorry the price for me does not count if it does what you have said and promised, i am down!!! take my money !!
We're running a pre-sale on Kickstarter right now-you can find the link in the video description. Once the event wraps up, it'll be back to the regular price of $1499.
As a Developer I cannot understand why you would choose Numbers, as if you're creating an app I would imagine you'd use localization. But for English localization we're more of a "M T W T F S S".
Virtually every robot vacuum company's app shows the same options. It is like how a car dashboard regardless of company will show speed, engine temperature, mileage, oil life and so on. Here? Cleaning area, cleaning time, and battery life. So no need to fret. They are not stealing. It is out of necessity that things look so similar because all robot vacuums ultimately accomplish the same purpose. You would see the same thing with iRobot and other brands as well.
Hi there, we actually started from an open source robot vacuum APP design so maybe you can see the backgroud color and layout style are similar. But we also have several unique features, making the layouts and operation logic are different. Also, we already checked and made sure that or icons are redesign to avoid any IP issues.
Well, what about aftermarket service and warranty with purchases through Kickstater? The machine is interesting for the current kickstater price, but the regular price is too high for me. Your videos on the machine feel a little edited and customized, more like advertising than a review of the machine.
Currently, we have unlocked a 6-month extended warranty, making it a total of 18 months of coverage. You can check the FAQs on Kickstarter for more details.
I'm super excited to see this! How does the pathing work? Is AI / Machine Learning, or is it just algorithmic? Can we expect over-the-air updates over time?
Thank you for your enthusiasm! Ascender is gearing up for its Kickstarter debut. It navigates using the Lidar SLAM algorithm for basic mapping and path planning, while AI significantly boosts its obstacle avoidance and environmental perception capabilities. For more in-depth information, please visit our landing page (link provided in the video description).
@@MigoRobotics Awesome! Thank you for your response. Could you also do a video showing how the Ascender climbs stairs with thick (high pile) carpet? So far I have only seen it climb stairs with no carpet.
Ascender can navigate stairs of various heights, widths, and styles. Please note that the stairs' height should be under 8.7 inches/22 cm, and the minimum width of circular stairs on the widest side should be 5.9 inches/15 cm. If an adult can comfortably step on the stairs, Ascender should be well-equipped to manage them.
Oh, I'm thrilled to hear you say that, and I'll take your words as the utmost compliment! At the time we recorded this video, our algorithms weren't completely refined, and the machine's movements were somewhat erratic in a few clips. Yet, it seems you didn't pick up on any of those imperfections!
I am thoroughly impressed with the features of this robot. Idk why it isn’t being talked about more but it really does have the most features on the market. In the future, I would love to see two integrated upgrades. 1. The docking station to be a dehumidifier and air purifier so that the robot can be ran off recycled water. 2. The ability to connect it to a drain to enable self emptying of the dirty water to make the robot completely automated. I really do hope the robot’s features are able to deliver as I am really looking forward to this robot!

Hello from Greece
I paid the full amount on the kickstarter, are we getting the robot vacuum in July?
I hope it has a light to clean in dark areas. Can you upload a video of its mopping capabilities?
