Client: Hoover, United Kingdom

In a perfect world the vacuum would push itself from room to room and that’s just what Hoover’s concept vacuum would do. It uses infrared sensors to follow the user through the house. A remote control allows the vacuum to unplug itself from an outlet and slowly retract the cord to avoid whipping.
