Even a [good vacuum cleaner](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shark-powerdetect-clean-empty-system) isn't guaranteed to get all of those pesky particles off of your flooring. The Jell Balls product is a concept that explores the potential of gelatinous material to collect difficult dust in an automatic fashion, leaving your tiles and your hardwood completely clean.

Juan Lee's idea comprises a compact main body and dust bucket where the eight jell balls dock. It's on this where they charge, discard their lint and absorbed scraps, and where they receive their commands. The atypical robotic design actually involves the melting together of the [autonomous gooey globes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/autonomous-cleaning-device) between uses. The innovative [Electrolux](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wardrobe-dehumidifier) Jell Balls have a plasmic quality that's more malleable than we can yet comprehend.
