In this video I am having a closer look at the most interesting component of the Xiaomi vacuum robot. The Lidar scanner or very similar versions are common components in other vacuum robots. Therefore they are well known and hackable! I am demonstrating that with a Raspberry Pi inside a Sunfounder RasPad demo unit which has some limitations in terms of processing power.
