Window Cleaning Robot
The robot home assistant is still very much sci-fi, but you can at least now get one to clean your windows. Or at least that’s the idea, unfortunately my house has other plans.
As patrons you have early access to this video…and of course my continuing thanks.
If you are wondering what happened to the camera reviews, I do have a few in the works…but changes in circumstances, as well as the season.. mean they now take me much longer to make. That said, I don’t have anything spectacular to show, all the ones I've been testing are either flawed or just about okay. So I keep putting them to the bottom of the queue as I find more interesting topics to make videos about instead.

I saw these on sale at a Wing On department store in Hong Kong once. Apparently they are popular with high rise apartment dwellers where the lanyard is not just for the device's protection, but more for the safety of passers-by way below. I have a couple of Neato vacuums cleaning my floors, so I'm familiar with robotic help, but I groan when our veranda's glass balustrade needs washing, so I was tempted to buy one of these once. However, the top/bottom mounted glass panes have a 20mm air gap at both sides and I figured the WinBot wouldn't detect this until it was too late and suction was lost. I enjoy your work - very well produced and presented :)
