The World’s First Cognitive AI Robotic Pool Cleaner – Aiper Scuba V3 Ultra
LAS VEGAS — Aiper has officially disrupted the smart home ecosystem at CES 2026 with the debut of the Scuba V3 Ultra, the world’s first cognitive, 6-in-1 robotic pool cleaner.
Winning a 2026 CES Innovation Award, the Scuba V3 Ultra moves beyond traditional programmed cleaning. By merging real-time vision, adaptive mapping, and weather-integrated intelligence, it transforms pool maintenance from a manual chore into a fully autonomous, “set-and-forget” experience.
Intelligence Above and Below the Surface
The Scuba V3 Ultra is powered by Aiper’s proprietary Cognitive AI Navium™ Mode. Unlike standard robots that follow fixed patterns, the V3 Ultra acts as a “thinking” device. It analyzes local weather data, previous cleaning history, and real-time vision inputs to decide exactly when and where to clean.
-
Adaptive Response: If a storm passes, the V3 Ultra proactively initiates a surface clean to capture 99% of debris before it sinks.
-
AI Patrol Cleaning: Featuring an industry-first dual-camera system, the robot recognizes debris in real time. It dynamically adjusts its speed and path to ensure 360° coverage from the pool floor to the waterline.
Breakthrough “JellyFloat” Technology
One of the most significant engineering leaps is the JellyFloat™ Energy-Smart Lift Engine. Utilizing an internal airbag propulsion system, the Scuba V3 Ultra can navigate areas previously unreachable by robotic cleaners.
-
Shallow Water Mastery: The unit can clean sun shelves and beach entries as shallow as 20 centimeters (8 inches).
-
Anti-Stranding: The lift engine allows the robot to “surface” to get unstuck from complex pool geometries, ensuring uninterrupted cycles.
6-in-1 Cleaning Power
The Scuba V3 Ultra is a true multi-tasker, combining an intelligent vacuum, wall climber, and surface skimmer.
“The Scuba V3 Ultra isn’t just cleaning the pool—it’s redefining smart living,” says the Aiper team. “It learns, adapts, and performs with the sophistication of true cognitive technology.”
Sustainability and Design
Despite its power, the V3 Ultra is designed for the modern, eco-conscious home. Its sleek, hydrodynamic silhouette reduces water resistance, while the AI-optimized motor system cuts energy consumption by up to 40% compared to traditional cleaners. At just 27.5 pounds (12.5 kg), it remains manageable for the average homeowner while being durable enough for all pool types, including gunite, tile, and vinyl.
Pricing and Availability
The Aiper Scuba V3 Ultra is expected to retail at an MSRP of €2,299 ($2,499 USD) and will be available starting Spring 2026.
