Dyson will be announcing the Dyson 360 Eye today. Formerly known as Dyson Project N223, the Dyson 360 Eye has been 16 years in the making.

The Dyson 360 Eye robot is an intelligent robot that has the most powerful suction of any robot on the market, capturing more dirt than any other robot in one pass. It combines the latest Dyson digital motor and Root Cyclone technology to separate dust and dirt, capturing particles down to 0.5 microns - that's 600 times smaller than the dot at the end of this sentence.

iRobot Braava Launches today, replaces mint and mint plus.

Looks like iRobot has relaunched the Evolution Mint as the new iRobot Braava.  The Mint and the Mint Plus are now the Braava 320 and the Braava 380t.  It's unclear if there are any actual updates other than the curiously awkward new names - but from the listed specifications it would appear that they are unchanged.
