The [LG](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lg-cordzero-vacuum) RoboCyking follows users around faithfully so as not to tire out diligent house cleaners.

While the LG RoboCyking may not be as [autonomous as other vacuums](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/robotic-vacuum-technology) on the market, it does have its own advantage. The device is equipped with a sophisticated algorithm that controls the robot and allows it to follow the user wherever he/she wants it to go. Think of it like a cheerful puppy, but instead of begging for attention and food, it sucks up any dirt along the way. It also has a [dust compression system](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/roomba-205-dustcompactor-combo-robot) and ultrasonic wave sensing technology. Of course, the user still has to guide the device, but at least cleaners can avoid a sore back at the end of the day by not having to lug a traditional vacuum around the room.
