It automatically detects problems and corrects them.

Such as: if the chlorine levels drop below acceptability, it add chlorine. if the water level is too low, it adds water. When the filter is full, a small robot dumps out the filter and replaces it with a new one. the rover is remotely controlled by a computer to make sure it cleans the entire pool bottom.

       The funny thing is that I work at a pool and nothing is automated, except for the pumps. This would save time and allow lifeguards to keep an eye on patrons.

       Looks like there are self-chlorinating pools. I know there are float devices that automatically keep the water at a preset level.
