"The Robotic Series has been the most challenging product since we have been in business," said Joseph Ko, Chairman and CEO of Techko Group and Founder of Techko. The Robotic product design has unique challenges. The most difficult part is the user's environment on the floor, with many floor types, objects and variables. In addition, there are more than 100 patents that have already been established by market leaders, so the company must develop its own unique design – patentable innovation. "This has made us better in product development, and established a solid foundation," Ko continued. The Techko Maid series is focused on hard floor applications, and the Kobot series is focused on both carpet and hard floor applications. "Our Kobot series of products are all equipped with a special designed mop pad attachment for both wet and dry mini pads or standard pads. Consumers can easily purchase the mop sheets at any retail stores. Our newly developed Robotic vacuum has increased robotic vacuum power three to 10 times more than the tradition- al robotic vacuum. Our Kobot series can easily navigate over area rugs, etc. up to 1.0 inch. Our unique digital coding sen- sor provides better fall prevention and an invisible wall that allows a better way for the robot to return the auto charging sta- tion. One major factor in our Robotic Products Line is the affordability! Our industry designs on the unit have won many designer awards with one great fea- ture; the unit is a slim 3.0 inches and can easily go under sofas and beds, all the areas a consumer normally can never get to vacuum," Ko said. "What's in the future? The traditional upright vacuum will be gradually phased out and the Robotic Vacuum will replace it with more power and more features. Robotic vacuums will have affordable pricing and be able to replace the time consuming floor cleaning by humans, all to be done by Robots! We are always the prime manufacturer in the industry that we participate in and are committed to it. Techko will continue to invest in new product development and bring the best to the customers and to a better life!" Ko concluded.
