Roborock Qrevo Curv cleans all floor types, this feature is essential, since different rooms inside a home may have various types of flooring i.e. carpets. If a robot vacuum cleaner is said to be able to clean all floor types, it means that the robot vacuum is capable to effectively clean several flooring materials without much significant issues.
Shark IQ RV1001AE can also clean all floor types, which implies that it too is designed to be versatile, giving effective cleaning performance on either carpets or hard floors found in most homes. The vacuum's ability to create a map of its cleaning space is one of the commonly asked-for features. This map allows the robot to "understand" the layout of the desired space.
This can be used for different situations, e.g. the Roborock Qrevo Curv having the mapping feature can dedicate efficient cleaning in the mapped-out areas keeping out of those that are not. Shark IQ RV1001AE also has the mapping and navigation feature, navigation defines how the robot vacuum moves around the space.
Mapping and navigation often go hand in hand to help the vacuum navigate to the mapped-out spaces to be cleaned leaving out those that aren't. Roborock Qrevo Curv has an obstacle sensor, such a sensor serves the purpose of detecting and identifying objects in the robot's route, this allwos it to navigate around them and avoid collisions. Also, the Shark IQ RV1001AE has an obstacle sensor, obstacle sensors work together to provide the robot vacuum with a better understanding of its surroundings, enabling it to navigate around furniture, walls, and other objects when cleaning a room thus preventing damage to both the robot and its obstacles.
