[Asia Economy Reporter Dongwoo Lee] LG Electronics announced on the 27th that it has launched the mop-dedicated robot vacuum cleaner 'LG CordZero M9 ThinQ.'


Unlike existing robot vacuum cleaners, the product is characterized by the absence of driving wheels. Two mops rotate to clean the floor while moving simultaneously. A low-noise design was applied to the driving unit that rotates the mops, achieving a low noise level of about 44 decibels (dB) based on acoustic power level standards.


It is equipped with an 'automatic water supply system' that keeps the mop moist so that it does not dry out during cleaning. This technology automatically supplies a certain amount of water to the mop and allows the water supply to be adjusted in 3 stages. Using the LG ThinQ app, it can be adjusted up to 5 stages.


The new product autonomously recognizes the house structure through artificial intelligence deep learning technology that has pre-learned 700,000 object images. The My Zone function, which distinguishes living rooms, kitchens, bedrooms, etc., allows users to set spaces they want or do not want to clean conveniently. Various sensors, including six laser sensors, bumper sensors, and cliff sensors, effectively detect and avoid obstacles.


The CordZero M9 ThinQ can be connected to the home appliance management application 'LG ThinQ' to use smart functions. Using the Home View function, users can check pets or the home situation in real-time video via their mobile phones even when outside the house. The Home Guard function automatically takes photos and sends them to the customer's smartphone if movement is detected in designated areas of the house while the customer is away.


This product is released in Iron Gray color, with a price of 699,000 KRW based on the retail price. LG Electronics plans to sequentially add new colors such as Vintage Wine, Fantasy Silver, and Blossom Pink.



Jaecheol Ryu, Vice President and Head of the Living Appliance Division at LG Electronics H&A Business Division, said, “The new product, equipped with differentiated cleaning performance and innovative convenience, will introduce a new cleaning culture and provide customers with a different level of value.”
