That's exactly what makes this a good acquisition, right? Roomba has the brand/trademark recognition in the US and solid marketshare but a stagnant product, which iRobot apparently does not have the expertise needed to keep improving. For Amazon that should be a pretty straightforward technical/ML problem to solve to get back to the forefront of where Xiaomi, Ecovacs, etc. are.
