ROOMBA DUO LETS ONE AUTONOMOUS ROBOT CARRY AND DEPLOY ANOTHER ROBOT

Summary from the TLDR Hardware newsletter

The Roomba Duo is a dual-robot architecture where the larger autonomous machine physically carries and deploys an ultra-compact companion using a top-mounted mechanical arm. Both robots share a map and coordinate in real time, while dual-line LiDAR, PrecisionVision AI, and additional top-mounted cameras provide navigation and perception. The main robot adds a 60 mm roller mop with 46 N downforce, steam pre-treatment, 17 cm hub-motor wheels, and a centralized autonomous maintenance dock.
