iRobot Roomba

The roomba integration allows you to control your iRobot Roomba vacuum or iRobot Braava m-series mop.

This platform has been tested and is confirmed to be working with the iRobot Roomba s9+, Roomba 980, Roomba 960, Roomba 890, and Braava jet m6 models, but should also work fine with any Wi-Fi enabled Roomba or Braava like the 690.
