Functional description
The device consists of a charging station and a battery-
powered cleaning robot.
The mobile cleaning robot obtains its energy from a
built-in rechargeable battery. The cleaning robot can
clean for up to 120 minutes with a single battery charge.
It automatically returns to the charging station to re-
charge when the battery charge decreases.
The cleaning robot moves systematically. It scans the
room with a 3-D laser sensor with camera (LiDAR) and
then cleans the room step-by-step. It avoids obstacles
that are at least as high as the LiDAR tower.
Artificial intelligence helps the cleaning robot to avoid
complex obstacles such as cables or shoes without in-
terference.
Due to the calculation of the intelligent driving strategy
by the artificial intelligence and the subsequent obstacle
avoidance, it can take a few seconds, depending on the
obstacle situation, until the robot resumes its regular
travel path to clean the free area in straight paths.
The flat design of the cleaning robot allows it to clean
under furniture such as beds, sofas and cupboards.
The ultrasound sensor detects carpets and avoids them
during wet cleaning or combination cleaning. For dry
cleaning only, the unit increases its suction performance
on carpets (auto-boost).
Fall sensors that detect stairs and landings prevent falls.
Collision sensors detect obstacles and avoid them.
The battery for the cleaning robot is charged in the
charging station.
If the cleaning robot starts the cleaning work from the
charging station, it returns to the charging station when
the battery charge is insufficient.
As soon as the charging process is finished, the clean-
ing robot automatically leaves the charging station and
continues the cleaning work. The cleaning robot also re-
turns to the charging station when it has finished clean-
ing.
