Forget Roomba — DJI Just Swapped Drones for Robot Vacuums with the DJI Romo

CHINA, AUG 6 – DJI applies drone navigation technology to robotic vacuums, offering millimeter-level obstacle avoidance and AI mapping in a competitive smart home cleaning market with 20.6 million global shipments in 2024.

  • As a departure from drones, the Romo series marked DJI’s home cleaning debut on Aug. 6 in Shenzhen.
  • Drawing on its drone-based sensors, the Romo employs sweeping, mopping and precise obstacle detection, integrating environmental sensing and path planning from its drone operations.
  • Off the shelf, the Romo offers up to 25,000 Pa of suction power with mechanical arms and scrub pads, and features a three-stage noise filtering system the company claims cuts vacuum hum by 80%.
  • In China’s robot vacuum market, DJI’s Romo challenges incumbents as global shipments reached 20.6 million units in 2024, up 11.2 percent year on year.
  • The company said the ROMO series is expected to launch in overseas markets later this year, as Q1 2025 shipments rose to 5.1 million units.
