There are many creative items in our lives now, among which I think the really creative item is the robot vacuum. The emergence of the robot vacuum makes life more convenient. It combines artificial intelligence with sweeping. There are three creative points that I think are very meaningful.

The first point is appearance design. The most common appearance of a robot vacuum is flat and round. This shape is designed to better enter some narrow places for cleaning, such as under the sofa.

The second point is function, the robot vacuum can sense nearby things. If there are obstacles in front of it, it will automatically go around it, which allows it to clean the home freely. The robot vacuum’s cleaning system perfectly combines a broom and a vacuum cleaner to achieve maximum cleaning.

The third point is adaptability. Robot vacuum can adapt to any different floor materials, such as wooden floors, carpets, ceramic tiles, etc. Can come and go freely on these materials. There is also the adaptability to garbage, the robot vacuum can clean liquids and different particles.

In summary, the robot vacuum is a very useful creative item. It can clean the home at any time, and we don’t have to worry about it not being cleaned properly. I think creativity comes from life. I never thought that one day I would not have to clean the floor myself. The emergence of the robot vacuum surprised me. With the development of technology, the versions of robot vacuums are also being upgraded. Now some robot vacuums have cameras, which can not only sweep the floor but also keep an eye on the situation at home. My design thinking expectation is to be able to adapt to different environments and develop innovatively, to make perfect creative items just like robot vacuum which will keep up with the development of the times.
