VAC HACK IR Sensor Shields 8 Robotic Vacuum Replenishment Kit

Smart vacuums can't do it all! So you've invested a few hundred dollars on a smart vacuum so you could hit a button and go about your day while it cleans your floors, right? But then you notice it avoids the patterned rug in the living room and won’t even enter your dark-carpeted bedroom. Well, now you've got two rooms to vacuum manually which probably defeats the purpose of getting a robot vacuum in the first place. What a waste of money! Don't worry, there is a solution. When keeping it safe goes wrong. The issue is that smart vacuums are programmed with what are known as drop sensors, which detect a sudden change in elevation through infrared. The problem is these sensors think your dark carpet is equally dangerous, so the vacuum will adjust its course to avoid “falling” by retreating from your patterned rug. How do infrared sensors work? These sensors bounce infrared (IR) light between the vacuum and the floor. When the surface is lightly colored, the light bounces back and the vacuum goes on its merry vacuuming way, but when the surface is dark, the light is absorbed instead, causing the vacuum to cry out in fear and initiate its flight response. Luckily, there is a solution! Simply apply these adhesive reflectors to the bottom of your smart vacuum. By masking the infrared sensors, your vacuum will clean any room unimpeded by darkness. It’s that easy! VAC HACK IR Sensor Shields™ are sold as is, without warranty of any kind, either expressed or implied.
