The HASS Vacuum component is used to manage several connected vacuum cleaner robots of the Dyson, Ecovacs (all Deebot models), iRobot Roomba 980, Neato Robotics (Botvac) and Xiaomi Mi Robot Vacuum brands. The complete list is here.
For DIY enthusiasts, Home Assistant allows you to drive older unconnected models using an ESP8266 via MQTT messages. The project was developed for the old Roomba 650. The firmware is available on Github here. A similar project based on Raspberry Pi (Github project) has also been developed for the first generation of Neato robots.
