'I remember walking into my office and it looked like a murder scene, but with poop.' iRobot has announced a new Roomba robot vacuum cleaner called the j7+ that uses artificial intelligence to spot and stay away from pet poop and power cords.
In November 2014, Chantelle Darby awoke to an excrement-fueled nightmare. Her Roomba robot vacuum was set to run in the middle of the night, while she, her husband, and their dogs were asleep. But one of the three dogs — a foster pooch named MacGregor — pooped in the house at around the same time. When Darby got up in the morning, there was poop smeared throughout most of her home.
"I remember walking into my office and it looked like a murder scene, but with poop," Darby said Thursday.In her office, she said, the Roomba ran over a power cord, then kept roving in circles, leaving tracks reminiscent of crop circles. They threw out a rug, power cords, and — after her husband tried and failed to clean it — the Roomba.
