Technological Innovations to Bolster Robot Vacuum cleaners Market Growth

Advancements in technology have resulted in development of innovative products across various industries. Manufacturers of robot vacuum cleaners have been focusing on introducing advanced devices as competition goes rampant. Technological advancements in design, sensing ability and speed of robot vacuum cleaners have spearheaded the growth of their market worldwide. Intelligent path finding, advanced cleaning and better vacuum technology and smart design are few of the recent innovations influencing growth of the robot vacuum cleaners market. For instance, in 2020, Ecovacs Robotics introduced DEEBOT OZMO T8 which is a household cleaning device that can detect objects in path using TrueDetect Technology. The same year, iRobot unveiled the launch of Roomba i3+, an efficient robot vacuum cleaner that is incorporated with self-emptying ability using Clean Base Automatic Dirt Disposal along with intelligent navigation. In 2021, Dyson is working on introducing robot vacuum cleaners that have an actuated arm or tri-star wheels that allow them to navigate irregular surfaces and climb stairs in residential areas. Same year, Samsung introduced JetBot 90 AI+, an AI powered robot vacuum cleaner. Such innovations are expected to generate significant growth opportunities in turn bolstering growth of the robot vacuum cleaners market.

Indoor Pollution to Influence Sales of Robot Vacuum Cleaners

Hygiene and health have gained high priority by individuals on the back of growing concerns related to spread of infectious diseases in households and pollution of air indoors. This fact coupled with growing inclination towards sustainable lifestyle has triggered need for efficient home cleaning devices such as robot vacuum cleaners. Additionally, rising concerns related to indoor air pollution has further driven need for robot vacuum cleaners. For instance, according to WHO (World Health Organization), around 4 million individuals die every year due to illnesses caused by indoor air pollution. Moreover, around 27% of deaths due to pneumonia caused by presence of particulate matter and 20% deaths due to COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) due to indoor polluted air have been observed. With individuals relying on efficient cleaning systems, this aspect continues to influence the growth of the robot vacuum cleaners market.

High Price to Limit Sales; COVID 19’s “Initial” Impact Hindered Growth of Robot Vacuum Cleaners Market

Robot vacuum cleaners are embedded with various sensors and high-tech systems. Though technology has transformed lives, one major limitation apropos to pricing continues to challenge growth of advanced technological devices and their market. New-age robot vacuum cleaners come with advanced features associated with high pricing. This aspect continues to limit its sales to higher class individuals alone as less disposable income of medium-to-low class people does not permit purchase of such devices. Moreover, COVID 19 has further impacted the consumer electronics industry with a drop in consumer spending in 2019-2020. However, this aspect is changing at a moderate pace as industries are taking a grip on their businesses. It is expected that the effects of pandemic on purchase of devices such as robot vacuum cleaners are bound to reduce, further paving an opportunity for adoption of these devices to reduce indoor air pollution and removal of pathogens and viruses in household environments.

North America Likely to Account for a Major Share in the Robot Vacuum Cleaners Market

Sales of robot vacuum cleaners in developed countries of North America are expected to rise at a significant pace due to fast-paced lifestyle of individuals who rely on automated cleaning devices. Backed by higher disposable income and GDP per capita, people in the region can afford high-tech devices. Furthermore, the region being a hub for technology players, several consumer electronics companies have established their footprint in the region to grab significant amount of market share. This aspect continues to drive the robot vacuum cleaners market growth in North America, given its superior infrastructure, high purchase power parity and favorable business environment.
