With the improvement of people's living standards and the change of consumption concept, floor-sweeping robot has become one of the smart household appliances favored by consumers and plays an important role in home life.

Looking back at the development of floor-sweeping robot in recent years, it has changed from the initial stage of random collision sensing environment, from the planned cleaning stage supported by sensors to the navigation schematic cleaning stage supported by current algorithms. Today's floor-sweeping robot, with the blessing of software and hardware, has more intelligent functions such as sweeping and dragging, obstacle avoidance, self-cleaning and so on. With the continuous expansion of the market and the continuous innovation of science and technology, users have more diverse requirements and expectations for floor-sweeping robots.

Covering different consumer markets, Stone Technology released two new products

In order to meet the diversified needs of consumers, Stone Technology officially released two new products on March 21, the high-end flagship stone self-cleaning sweeping and dragging robot G20 and the ultra-cost-effective stone self-cleaning sweeping and dragging robot P10.

The newly upgraded high-end flagship stone G20, which changed the previous single-soldier array working mode, creatively launched the "super double-drive module", which is different from the traditional sweeping robot to upgrade its product performance through a single-parameter breakthrough. but through modular integration, under the cooperation of software and hardware, the overall performance of the sweeping robot is improved, based on user scenarios and pain points. Play a more intelligent set of clean "combination punches".

Compared with the high-end flagship stone G20, the ultra-cost-effective stone self-cleaning sweeping and dragging robot P10 can achieve full function under the competitive price advantage, and can enjoy the flagship sweeping and dragging experience and exclusive stone algorithms. Two new products with different positioning meet the needs of different consumers in the high and mid-market, and the extension of mature technology to the mid-market is expected to activate the consumption vitality of the floor-sweeping robot market, accelerate the popularization of all-round products, and enlarge the cake of the whole industry. let more users enjoy the better life brought about by innovation and technology.

The market demand for floor-sweeping robots is strong, and the market is looking forward to high-quality products.

The release of two new products in the high-end and mid-market layout has caused ripples in the floor-sweeping robot market, which seems to have been silent for nearly a year, further releasing user demand. After two consecutive years of double-digit growth in 2020 and 2021, the growth of the floor-sweeping robot industry began to slow in 2022, with total sales of about 4.41 million units and market shipments down 23.8% from a year earlier. Behind the short-term precooling of the industry lies the expectation of the market for products with better performance and higher performance-to-price ratio.

Although the industry is not as expected in the short term, the future growth space of the market is still huge. Under the background of insufficient penetration of the floor-sweeping robot market and increasingly diversified consumer demand for products, the floor-sweeping robot market shows a broader market potential, and many brands are pushing through the old and bringing forth the new. The improvement of single product parameters is undoubtedly not the main force of today's market game, accelerating scientific and technological innovation and technology patents will become the moat of robot brand competition.

Changjing, chairman and CEO of Stone Technology, said: "the reason why stone products can be recognized by users is that stone technology uses innovative technology to solve the pain points faced by users when using floor-sweeping robots, which is the value of stone technology products."

The competition in the industry is becoming increasingly fierce, and the strength of technological innovation has become the key to success.

At present, the number of players in the industry is increasing, the market competition is increasing, and the value of technological innovation is becoming increasingly prominent. For a long time, Stone Science and Technology insists on ensuring R & D strength with continuous R & D investment and promoting the landing of more innovative products.

Stone Science and Technology attaches great importance to pre-R & D investment, which reached 345 million yuan in the first three quarters of 2022, an increase of 10.85% compared with the same period last year, accounting for 7.85%. Since 2016, the cumulative investment in R & D has exceeded 1.5 billion yuan, and the proportion of R & D investment in stone technology in all kinds of science and technology enterprises belongs to a high level.

In terms of R & D personnel investment, the number of R & D personnel is also growing steadily. During the listing period, the number of R & D personnel increased from 273 to 477 in the first half of 2022, accounting for 54.08%. Under the premise of high R & D investment, Stone Science and Technology has also set up three major research institutes: AI Research Institute, Mechanical and Electrical Research Institute and Optoelectronics Research Institute, which have accumulated sufficient energy storage for its long-term and stable development. In the multifaceted and complex market environment, Stone Technology continues to launch innovative products to lead the steady development of the industry by virtue of its efficient R & D capabilities and technology reserves.

This time, the release of Stone G20 and Stone P10 has realized the innovation of cutting-edge technology on high-end flagship models, and promoted the rapid popularization of leading technology on mid-range models, so that more people can enjoy the innovative technology accumulated by stone science and technology. category segmentation to meet the needs of more consumers. Two new products with full product power are expected to open up more market share for Stone Technology and drive the steady growth of revenue and profits at the same time.
