Aiper is a relatively new player in the pool sector, yet it has conquered the international market in less than two years. The manufacturer always pulls out all the stops on its stand and at its events, and the least we can say is that it pays off! At CES 2025, the specialist in cordless pool cleaners dazzled us with its latest innovations, which promise to revolutionize the way we enjoy our outdoors.
The Scuba X series: intelligence at your pool's service
The highlight of the show is undoubtedly the Scuba X1 Pro Max, the brand's new flagship. This little jewel of technology boasts no fewer than 40 ultrasonic sensors and 9 motors for record suction power of 32 m3 per hour. In other words, no dead leaf has the slightest chance of escaping its grasp!
But what really makes the difference is its on-board artificial intelligence. Thanks to OmniSense+ 2.0 and FlexiPath 2.0 technologies, this robot maps your pool with surgical precision and adapts its route in real time. No more forgotten areas or repeated passes through the same spot!
Last but not least, it's an all-in-one robot: it will clean both the bottom and the sides, as well as the surface. A single robot is all you need to maintain your entire pool!
A complete range to suit all budgets
For those looking for a more affordable model, Aiper also offers the Scuba X1 and Scuba X1 Pro. The basic X1, priced at €1,199, already offers four cleaning modes and coverage of up to 200 m². Its big brother, the X1 Pro, adds an extra dose of intelligence with its patented OmniSense+™ technology for €1,499.
Surfer S2: the surface robot evolves
We had the opportunity to test the first Surfer S1 version. Well, the Surfer S2 represents a remarkable evolution: this autonomous robotic skimmer stands out for its DebrisGuard technology and waterproof deflector, which effectively capture all floating debris (leaves, insects, petals). Equipped with two optical time-of-flight sensors for depth detection, it skilfully navigates around obstacles such as stairs and sunbathing beaches.
Its impressive 35-hour autonomy, even on cloudy days, is ensured by an advanced charging system coupled with a solar panel. Particularly innovative, it incorporates a slow-release chlorine dispenser to maintain optimum water quality, and can be controlled via the Aiper app for real-time monitoring. Available from January 2025 at a price of €449, it promises to be a welcome replacement for the traditional landing net.
IrriSense: when watering becomes intelligent
But the real surprise at CES was Aiper's foray into the world of intelligent watering with the IrriSense. This new-generation sprinkler covers up to 400 m² and simulates natural rainfall for optimal watering.
What's really impressive is its ability to adapt to weather conditions in real time. Thanks to its built-in sensors, it automatically adjusts its watering programs – no more watering in the rain! And with installation in just 3 minutes, there's no excuse not to have a lawn worthy of a golf green.
Technology that makes sense
What strikes me most about these new products is the consistency of Aiper's approach. The company doesn't just pile on gimmicky features, but offers real solutions that meet real needs. The Scuba X1 Pro Max, for example, can operate for up to 10 hours in surface mode, and intelligently adapts to debris levels to optimize power consumption.
Availability and prices
The Scuba X series will be available from February 2025, with prices ranging from €1,199 for the X1 to €2,299 for the X1 Pro Max. The IrriSense, meanwhile, will arrive in spring for €439.
A final word
Aiper confirms its position as leader in the field of wireless pool robots, and its expansion into intelligent watering shows a real vision for the future. These new products for 2025 are not simple evolutions, but real technological leaps forward that will transform the way we enjoy our outdoor spaces.
And do you know what? I'm willing to bet that these innovations will be emulated in the industry. After all, when you see the cleaning precision of the X1 Pro Max and the intelligence of the IrriSense, you'd think that summer 2025 is really shaping up to be a great time!
