SINGAPORE,
March 22, 2017 — LG Electronics (LG) is proud to
announce the launch of its LG HOM-BOT Turbo+ (VR66820VMNC) in Singapore.
Available in a metallic gold color, this new model introduces the concept of smart
cleaning to Singaporeans. It introduces smart features like
HomeGuardTM allow parents, pet owners and frequent travellers to
keep an eye on their homes wherever they are. 

Doubles
Up as a Security Camera

The LG HOM-BOT Turbo+ can
be remotely controlled anytime, anywhere. It is more than just a vacuum cleaner
— its HomeGuardTM function also offers security capabilities. When
set to survey a preselected location within the home, it will snap and send
five photos of the preset area to the owner’s smartphone when motion is
detected. This function gives users a peace of mind when away from home to keep
an eye on pets or elderly folks. The smart device will return to its charging
station after being in Motion Detection mode for five hours and thirty minutes,
and once fully charged, the HOM-BOT Turbo+ goes back to its preset position.

Track its Cleaning
Progress with HomeViewTM and Cleaning Diary

The HomeViewTM feature
allows home owners to monitor the LG HOM-BOT Turbo+ cleaning progress wherever
they are. Boasting a wide-angle camera at the front, the robotic vacuum cleaner
captures more details in a single frame for convenient real-time monitoring.
Simply launch the SmartThinQ mobile application (available on Android and iOS) and
activate the HOM-BOT Turbo+ to start its cleaning schedule at the preselected
locations. The joystick on the application allows users to control and direct
the vacuum cleaner. They can also have a direct view of what the camera is
capturing on their smartphone screens and allow users to have better control
over the cleaning process to ensure the house is spick and span.

The Cleaning Diary function
allows users to review where the LG HOM-BOT Turbo+ has been cleaning via a
playback feature. With this feature, users can check the vacuum’s cleaning route
with their smartphones to ensure a thorough clean at home. They can also
schedule a timing for the HOM-BOT Turbo+ to start cleaning or change the preselected
locations as preferred.

Efficiency
is a Hallmark

With the following features, the LG HOM-BOT Turbo+
increases user convenience while maximizing cleaning efficiency.

Triple
Eye: The vacuum cleaner is fitted with three cameras,
with the front camera activated as a security camera. The upper camera creates
a map of the house by calculating the intensity of light while vacuuming. The
lower camera reads the floor pattern and measures distance and slight changes
to the floor to smartly clean darker areas such as under the sofa or bed.

Digital
Bumper and Smart Exit: The Digital Bumper feature combines multiple
ultrasonic sensors to recognize obstacles in the LG HOM-BOT Turbo+’s proximity
and minimize collisions, even transparent objects such as glass. The Smart Exit
function enables the unit to take various actions when faced with challenges
such as weaving its way out of tight spaces, backing out from bumps, detecting
ledges to prevent falling or getting stuck on door frames.

Easy
Out Dust Bin: Unlike vacuum cleaners with slide-out dust
bins, the LG HOM-BOT Turbo+ has a lift-from-the-top dust bin that minimizes
residual dust around the bin slot. Retrieval of the dust bin can be done in one
easy push to unlock and lift.

Mapping
Resume Function: If cleaning is interrupted, the LG HOM-BOT Turbo+
will remember where it left off from and return to its last position to
continue cleaning, avoiding repetition in the cleaning process.

Smart
Inverter Motor™: Both powerful and durable, the Smart Inverter
motor is backed by a 10-year warranty, offering owners maximum performance with
high efficiency and durability.

The LG HOM-BOT Turbo+ retails
for S$1,599 and will be available at all LG authorized retailers from end March
onwards.
