Roborocks new vacuum can pick up loose socks for you with its robotic arm

People with kids, rejoice.

That's because Roborock is releasing a robot vacuum that can help clear up all the little socks they leave all over the place. Announced at CES 2025, the Roborock Saros Z70 is a pretty normal-looking circular robot vacuum, except for the part where a big robot arm is jutting out of it. Roborock says it will launch in the first half of 2025, but didn't include any pricing info.

The arm is officially called OmniGrip, which Roborock insists is the "first-of-its-kind mass-produced foldable robotic arm" on a robot vacuum. It can allegedly take care of small items under 300g in size, like tissue paper, socks, and small towels. It's not really clear what the device does with these things, but apparently it can also clean hard-to-reach areas.

I don't have kids, but if I did, I'd seriously think about it.
