Cleaning equipment with different working modes has emerged, which has the advantages of high reliability, flexibility, and simple operation. However, these products also have disadvantages such as large size, high energy consumption, and inability to clean corners.

Cleaning staff need to perform a second manual cleaning of these blind spots.
