The iRobot Dirt Dog is a cleaning robot based on the Roomba platform designed for workshops and garages. It replaces the Roomba's vacuum cleaner with a series of brushes designed for cleaning up loose hardware and debris from workshop and garage floors. It is similar to a low-end Roomba, with a simplified user interface, and is compatible with accessories designed for iRobot's other domestic robots. The Dirt Dog lacks a vacuum motor, relying only on brushes for cleaning.
This robot was discontinued in late 2010; the only iRobot website references are for parts and accessories.
Famous quotes containing the words dirt and/or dog:
“If church prelates, past or present, had even an inkling of physiology they’d realise that what they term this inner ugliness creates and nourishes the hearing ear, the seeing eye, the active mind, and energetic body of man and woman, in the same way that dirt and dung at the roots give the plant its delicate leaves and the full-blown rose.”
—Sean O’Casey (1884–1964)
“She is a procession no one can follow after
But be like a little dog following a brass band.”
—George Barker (b. 1913)
