At CES, most brands focused on utilizing robotic technology to make pool maintenance easy and fast. This year’s event introduced a number of robotic pool cleaners designed to reduce manual effort while delivering more consistent cleaning. Brands have tried to improve automation, navigation, and debris detection to elevate the overall user experience. Many models now employ AI to plan smarter cleaning paths, avoid obstacles, and adapt to different pool shapes and sizes. Features like longer battery life, self-cleaning systems, and app control also stood out. If you are interested in robotic pool cleaners, we have listed our favorites from CES 2026 below.
Dreame Zircon 2
Dreame has unveiled a whole ecosystem at CES 2026 that includes the new Zircon 2 Ultra robotic pool cleaner, specially designed for better pool step cleaning. This functionality is achieved with QuadLift power that is generated using four high-efficiency pumps and dual propulsion jets. It features 3D laser mapping, 10,000 GPH suction, and an app-controlled auto-dock system for effortless pool maintenance. Its onboard battery can run it for up to six hours.
Beatbot AquaSense X
The Beatbot AquaSense X stands out because it is being touted as the world’s first robotic pool cleaner with a fully automatic self-cleaning station. Meaning you will not require manual filter cleaning after every use, unlike traditional pool robots. After a cleaning cycle, you just need to place the robot on the station, which uses high-pressure rotating backflushes to rinse the internal filter and empty the debris tank. The station has a 22-liter bin that can hold up to two months of debris. Another cool highlight is the Beatbot AI 2.0 and a vision system that helps it recognize over 40 types of debris. You can also control it with voice commands and using the companion mobile app.
Ecovacs Ultramarine
Ecovacs launched its first robot pool cleaner with smart navigation at the event. The Ultramine robotic pool cleaner is equipped with two cylindrical brushes and a unique rear scrubber for effective cleaning. It offers advanced environment recognition and path-planning capabilities that can adapt to different pool shapes and types. The onboard filtration is able to tackle everything from fine debris to stubborn stains. Furthermore, the companion mobile app allows you to manage the pool cleaner easily.

Aiper V3 Pro
Scuba V3 Pro is touted as the world’s 1st cognitive AI-powered self-optimizing pool cleaner. By utilizing AI Navium mode and dual-camera AI Patrol Cleaning, the Aiper Scuba V3 Pro can automatically optimize the cleaning path, frequency, and suction power by analyzing the pool’s size, shape, cleaning history, and even weather conditions. It can tackle floors, walls, and shallow areas with JellyFloat Energy-Smart Lift Engine and multi-layer MicroMesh filtration.
MAMMOTION SPINO S1
This robotic pool cleaner features a robotic-arm–assisted on-deck docking and charging system that automatically lifts the cleaner into its charging station for a truly hands-free pool-care experience. The Spino S1 Pro uses ZonePilot AI Vision, which combines an onboard camera, IMU, ToF, and pressure sensors for 360-degree environment detection. It comes with a 6,800 GPH suction power, dual roller brushes, and a dual-layer filter system.
