iRobot Corp. announced a partnership with IFTTT to enable new embedded smart home integrations. The companies will work to let customers more easily integrate devices and services, like smart thermostats, lighting and home security, directly within the iRobot HOME App. iRobot is innovating through digital features and smart home integrations to enhance the customer experience. Currently, this includes directing the Roomba® s and i Series robot vacuums, and the Braava jet® m6 robot mop, to clean specific rooms by name using voice assistant integrations. Working with IFTTT, and leveraging their new Connect product, iRobot will develop in-app integrations to allow its products to more extensively interact with other devices in the home. As a first step in support of the partnership, beginning on the iRobot IFTTTservice page, customers can find valuable new integrations that enable iRobot's Wi-Fi connected robots to be triggered by popular smart home devices, within a customized schedule. For example, a user's Roomba or Braava jet can be scheduled to clean when their smart thermostat is set to 'away' during a specific period of time. Or, using location-based family networking apps, a robot can begin cleaning when everyone in the household leaves for the day.
