Dyson launches three new robot vacuums.

The Nurovi range features a robot mop with spinning pads, a vacuum-only option, and an upgraded version of its Spot+Scrub AI, which adds UV detection and comes in white. Nurovi supposedly stands for “neural intelligence” combined with a camera-based vision system, which makes the robots better at navigation than prior models — based on limited demos I saw at IFA in Berlin. All three robots go on sale this month.

<em>The Dyson R3 Nurovi Spot+Scrub UV, $1,199, is a vacuum and mop with UV detection to spot and identify stains using Dyson’s signature green illumination. It has 30,000 Pa suction power, and the roller mop extends to clean edges.</em>
<em>Left, the Dyson R1 Nurovi Dry, $549, is a vacuum-only robot, with 21,000Pa and a smaller auto-empty dock. Right, the Dyson R2 Nurovi Wash+Dry, $699, uses spinning mopping pads instead of a roller mop. It’s available at Costco.</em>
<em>The R2’s triangular mopping pads can extend and are designed to give better coverage.</em>
<em>The R1 doesn’t have a mopping function.</em>
