Summary/Reader's Reponse Draft 3

  The article “How tech can ease the cleaning industry’s manpower crunch”  (GERMii, 2021) introduces SoftBank Robotics’ “AI – powered commercial floorcare cleaning robot, Whiz”. According to the article  (GERMii, 2021) , Whiz vacuums without external help so that cleaners can prioritize on “human – centric tasks”. It also steers clear of obstacles automatically and provides operators “real – time data and alerts”, allowing them to enjoy serenity with minimum supervision  (GERMii, 2021) . With an award winning BrainOS navigation software, all it takes is a one-time setup from the user and Whiz will remember the route  (Jacky's, 2022) . The built-in sensors and cliff detectors also ensure it avoids obstacles with ease. Whiz also has an effective cleaning system. It can thoroughly clean and cover a carpet area of 500m². With the help of the high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter, it allows it to “capture 99.97% of PM2.5 particles including pollen and dust”  (Jacky's, 2022)
