It could lead to a room size print bed, as in i wonder what the largest object it can currently make is.
Would also be neat if it could scan objects in the room as well, a lot more print in place capabilities with an idea like that.
Seems novel, but I agree with you, seems like it could lead to further neat innovation. Though it is pretty wild they chose a vacuum bot lol.

In engineering school we created a robot that does specific tasks for a contest. It was a lot of work, but that was the main goal. Using an existing device that already has a LIDAR (and probably SLAM) sounds like a very smart move to me, for a project where you want to focus on other problems that have no existing solution yet.
