The robotic vacuum
cleaner, also called a ‘robovac’, is a vacuum cleaner that has the ability of
functioning without human intervention within a defined area. It consists of a
mobile part, a docking station, and other accessories to assist its operation.
They are used to clean floors, gutters and pools. They have additional features
such as smart navigation, laser vision, room memory, mapping, and self-emptying
function that enable increased efficiencies and performance. Inbuilt ledge
sensors allow for maneuverability. Residential robotic vacuum cleaners
primarily aid in cleaning and ease household chores.
