Tikom G8000 Pro cleans all floor types, this comes in handy, as different rooms inside a home may have different types of flooring i.e. carpets. When a robot vacuum is advertised able to clean all types of floors, it implies that the robot vacuum is capable to clean a wide range of flooring materials without much limitations.
Shark IQ RV1001AE can also clean all floor types, meaning it is built to be versatile, providing effective cleaning performance on either carpets or hard floors commonly found in homes. The robot vacuum's ability to create a map of its cleaning area is one of the commonly asked-for features. The map it creates allows the robot to keep a record of the layout of the space.
Mapping and navigation can be used for different situations, e.g. the Tikom G8000 Pro having the mapping feature can provide 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 states 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 ignoring those that aren't. Tikom G8000 Pro has an obstacle sensor, this 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, making it possible to navigate around furniture, walls, and other objects when cleaning a room thus preventing damage to both the robot and its obstacles.
No-go zones is a feature found on many advanced robot vacuum cleaners and Tikom G8000 Pro supports this feature. These zones are essentially digital boundaries or restricted areas that you can set up preventing the robot from entering specific areas or rooms during its cleaning cycle. Shark IQ RV1001AE also supports the no-go zones feature, such a feature is particularly useful in rooms where there are locations that you want to keep off-limits to the robot vacuum.
