About K Series Robotic Pool Cleaner
K Series is a robotic pool cleaner designed for extended autonomous operation in residential pools. Infrared and IMU sensors support a three-dimensional path algorithm, so the cleaner maps the pool and adjusts the route around obstacles instead of moving at random. AI Inverter power management allows up to 15 hours of continuous operation and up to three weeks of standby. The hydrodynamic polymer body is finished in automotive lacquer that resists ultraviolet light and chlorine. A holographic touch interface is used to start the robot and to set scheduled cleaning cycles.

- Production Technology
- The core features a hydrodynamic polymer body finished in automotive lacquer that resists UV and chlorine. Environmental perception relies on advanced infrared and IMU sensors. The chassis uses a track drive system, providing excellent obstacle-crossing capability. Power is managed by a high density lithium battery and AI Inverter system. The user interface utilizes a Holographic Touch Interface. A 200 percent Turbo mode delivers massive suction.
- Design Challenge
- The core engineering challenge was integrating massive battery capacity without ruining the sleek hydrodynamic profile. We solved this by pairing a high energy core with our proprietary AI Inverter technology adaptively reducing power consumption. An external challenge was ensuring the beautiful exterior could survive harsh pool chemicals. We overcame this by borrowing techniques from the auto industry applying automotive lacquer for extreme UV and chlorine resistance.
- Research
- We conducted global field research evaluating pool maintenance pain points. Testing revealed current robots clean randomly miss spots and are too ugly to leave in luxury pools. Users demanded a beautiful solution with massive battery life. This insight drove our sports car industrial design and sensor navigation innovations. By utilizing an AI Inverter to operate for up to 15 hours it multiplies cleaning efficiency making backyard maintenance effortless and stylish.
- Inspiration
- Inspiration stems from the frustrations of pool owners dealing with ugly inefficient cleaners requiring daily charging. Guided by the Artful Living Technology philosophy we fused sports car aesthetics with automotive paint to create an ambient art piece. By combining smart sensor navigation with AI Inverter power allocation we ended battery anxiety forever creating a zero management ecosystem that elevates poolside elegance.
- Project Duration
- The project commenced in January 2024 in Shenzhen, China, and the product was officially launched in Las Vegas, United States, during CES 2025. Retail availability across major e-commerce platforms in North America and Europe begins in June 2025, aligning with the peak summer usage season.
- Operation Flow
- Daily operation is entirely wire free and highly intuitive via the Holographic Touch Interface. Users drop the robot into the pool and the smart system maps the environment autonomously using a 3D path algorithm. Advanced sensors precisely identify obstacles and adjust routes. With the AI Timer users can set scheduled cleaning cycles as easily as setting an alarm. Extreme battery efficiency allows it to remain on standby for three weeks.
