Minecraft:Robot Vacuum Cleaner
More actions
A robot vacuum cleaner is a motorized vacuum capable of moving on its own using artificial intelligence, commonly seen in promotions for Minecraft Education.
Appearance
The machine is depicted as a blue, motorized vacuum, similar to a Template:Wikipedia. On its right side is a single, red light similar to an eye, while the top has a hatch. Underneath it is a series of black treads. On the back is what appears to be a charging port.
Behavior
Throughout its appearances, it has been shown moving both automatically and autonomously. In its debut, it automatically followed any dirt it saw as it accumulated. In the Minecraft:AI Adventurers series, it is depicted moving freely without an apparent goal, and cautiously maneuvers around surfaces to prevent disturbances.
Properties
The robotic vacuum cleaner is designed for indoor maintenance, such as cleaning up footprints and dust. Using advanced artificial intelligence, it is able to survey its surroundings and create an optimized path for cleaning. However, it can only travel forwards or by rotating, similar to a tank, and is shown to be quite slow. If its runs less than ideally, it can be reprogrammed externally, such as with a laptop. This can enable it to run much quicker, zooming over from one side of a room to another instantaneously.
History
In 2023, the robotic vacuum cleaner was used by Minecraft:Agent to clean up the floor of a room, which was unknowingly being dirtied by Minecraft:Chicken. The trails kept piling up and up, more than the robot could handle, so Agent chose to reprogram it to maximize its speed. This proved more efficient, deciding to take a rest on a nearby couch, while the robot actively chased Chicken.
In 2024, it drove around behind a desk while Chicken slept. Agent walked over, and struggled to find a way to pass the vacuum without stepping on it. On another day, it was seen moving along behind a couch while Chicken and Agent watched trickshots on their Minecraft:tablet. While Chicken and Agent performed a show, a poster of the robot could be seen on the wall.
