From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A robotic vacuum cleaner, sometimes called a robovac or a roomba as a generic trademark, is an autonomous robotic vacuum cleaner which has a limited vacuum floor cleaning system combined with sensors and robotic drives with programmable controllers and cleaning routines. Early designs included manual operation via remote control and a «self-drive» mode which allowed the machine to clean autonomously.^[1] Some designs use spinning brushes to reach tight corners, and some include a number of cleaning features along with the vacuuming feature (mopping, UV sterilization, etc.).^[2] More recent models use artificial intelligence and deep learning for better mapping, object identification and event-based cleaning.

Marketing materials for robotic vacuums frequently cite low noise, ease of use, and autonomous cleaning as main advantages.^[3] The perception that these devices are set-and-forget solutions is widespread but not always correct. Robotic vacuums are usually smaller than traditional upright vacuums, and weigh significantly less than even the lightest canister models. However, a downside to a robotic vacuum cleaner is that it takes an extended amount of time to vacuum an area due to its size. They are also relatively expensive,^[4] and replacement parts and batteries can contribute significantly to their operating cost.^[5]

History[edit]

In 1956, the American science fiction author Robert A. Heinlein described the concept of a robotic vacuum cleaner with a recharging dock in his novel The Door into Summer: «Basically it was just a better vacuum cleaner …. It went quietly looking for dirt all day long, in search curves that could miss nothing …. Around dinner time it would go to its stall and soak up a quick charge.»^[6]

In 1969 on 2 April an episode of The Avengers was broadcast in which the character Inge Tilson played by Dora Reisser says «…I saw a demonstration once. A robot vacuum cleaner. It swept around the house, went back into its cupboard, automatically plugged in and recharged itself…». The teleplay for this episode which was entitled «Thingumajig» was written by Terry Nation. It was episode 27 of Season 7.^[7]

In 1985, Tomy released the Dustbot as a part of their Omnibot line of toys. Dustbot was the first robot to feature a built in vacuum, and was able to turn when it sensed an edge or ran into something. Dustbot would carry a mini broom and dustpan for decoration.^[8][9][10]

In 1990, three roboticists, Colin Angle, Helen Greiner, and Rodney Brooks, founded iRobot.^[11] It was originally dedicated to making robots for military and domestic use. It launched the Roomba in 2002, which was able to change direction when it encountered an obstacle, detect dirty spots on the floor, and identify steep drops to keep it from falling down stairs.^[5] The Roomba proved to be the first commercially successful robot vacuum.^[12] In 2005, iRobot introduced the Scooba, which scrubbed hard floors.

In 1996, Electrolux introduced the first robotic vacuum cleaner, the Electrolux Trilobite.^[5] It worked well but had frequent problems with colliding with objects and stopping short of walls and other objects, as well as leaving small areas not cleaned.^[5] As a result, it failed in the market and was discontinued.^[5] In 1997, one of Electrolux’s first versions of the Trilobite vacuum was featured on the BBC’s science program, Tomorrow’s World.^[13]

In 2001, Dyson built and demonstrated a robot vacuum known as the DC06. However, due to its high price, it was never released to the market.^[14] Electrolux released the Trilobite robotic vacuum cleaner. The Robotic vacuum cleaner launched at a price of $1,800.00. There were two models: the ZA1 and the ZA2.

In 2010, the Neato Robotics XV-11 robotic vacuum introduced laser-based mapping, allowing navigation in straight lines rather than the traditional random navigation.^[15]

In 2015, Dyson and iRobot both introduced camera-based mapping.^[16][17]

In 2016, iRobot CEO claimed that 20% of vacuum cleaners sales worldwide were robots.^[18]

As of 2018, obstacles such as dog feces, cables and shoes remain very difficult for robots to navigate around.^[19][20]

In 2022, ECOVACS launched DEEBOT-X1 Family featuring YIKO^[21] Voice Assistant, which was the industry’s first natural language for home robots with Al voice interaction and control technologies.^[22][23][24]

Main features[edit]

Cleaning modes[edit]

Robotic vacuums have different types of cleaning modes, usually including the following:^[25]

• Auto: This mode is helpful for general cleaning. Typically, the mode cleans a space until the battery runs out.
• Spot: with the help of this mode, the vacuum focuses on a particular dirty zone.
• Turbo: This mode is used to clean and pick up the most dirt and dust, but it may create noise.
• Edge: This mode helps to clean edges and corners.
• Quiet: The mode helps to reduce noise levels while cleaning. It is helpful when the user is at home.
• Remote control: It allows the user to control the direction of the vacuum.

Wet mopping[edit]

Some models can also mop for wet cleaning, autonomously vacuuming and wet-mopping a floor in one pass (sweep and mop combo).

The mop is either manually wet before attachment to the bottom of the robot or the robot may be able to automatically spray water on to the floor before running over it.

Some advanced robot vacuum cleaners have a sensor that detects and avoids mopping in carpeted areas. However, if there is no sensor, most of the robot vacuum cleaner manufacturers add a no-mop zone feature in the app to make robot vacuums to avoid certain areas to clean. These robot vacuums are also capable to mop about 150 m² (1,600 sq ft) in one go.

A robot mop can tackle multiple surfaces and comes with a variety of different cleaning modes, providing options for sweeping, vacuuming and mopping damp or wet floors. Robot mops score better on hard surfaces and are ideally suited for hardwood, laminate and tile flooring types.

Mapping[edit]

The first robovacs used random navigation. This sometimes caused the unit to miss spots when cleaning or be unable to locate its base station to recharge, and did not provide the user a history of which spaces were cleaned.

More sophisticated models include mapping ability. The unit can use gyro-, camera-, radar-, and laser- (laser distance sensor or LDS) guided systems to create a floor plan, which can be permanently stored for more efficiency, and updated with information on areas which have been (or have not been) cleaned. Thus, the cleaning efficiency is greatly improved and the repetition rate is reduced significantly.

Models with a multiple floor plan feature can store several floor plans.

Others[edit]

Anti-drop

Most robots include anti-drop and anti-bump IR sensors.

Anti-winding

When approaching obstacles, the robot vacuum cleaner will automatically turn away.

Anti-tangle

Prevents the robot vacuum cleaner from becoming tangled in cables.

Virtual no-go lines

Virtual no-go lines set boundaries to restrict the unit’s movements to desired cleaning areas.

Quick recharge

Most robot vacuums come with a lithium-ion battery of around 2000 mAh that will last long enough to handle approximately 200 m² (2,200 sq ft) of floor space (about 100 minutes). Regular charge time is five to six hours. Quick recharge allows the unit to calculate the shortest way to recharge (shortcut path) and charge only as much as needed, so it finishes more quickly (automatic cleaning resumption).

Schedule

Scheduled daily cleaning. All-Timetable means a full week of different daily schedules can be programmed.

Connected app

Some models allow control of the unit using an app over a WiFi connection from the user’s smartphone or connected home automation device, e.g. Amazon Alexa and the Google Assistant.

Software upgrades

Some units are able to receive over-the-air (OTA) firmware updates.

HEPA filters

HEPA air filters are industry-standard now^{[as of?]} for robot vacuum cleaners. These remove dust and pollen from the air.

RobotsРоботыThe era of robots is approaching. It’s the result of scientific-technical progress. These mechanical agents were created to help people with hazardous work and daily chores. And, indeed, they are capable of doing many things. They can perform any operations, according to the program installed in them. For example, they can help with the laundry, do preparatory work for cooking meals, answer the phone, pick up objects, and even deal with radioactive substances. If we think over this issue, we will realize that we have already robots at our houses. They don’t only come in the shape of an electronic man, they are also regarded as automatic machines for performing various work. Most household appliances are like robots: a dishwasher, a washing machine, a clothes dryer, a microwave, a blender, a vacuum-cleaner, etc. These intelligent machines help us on everyday basis. They have significantly changed our life to the better. Speaking of realistic robots with two hands, two legs and a head with built-in computer, these creatures might be very useful in the future. Perhaps, every house will have at least one robot to provide help with a repetitive, boring work. Other than that, robots can be exploited to do the most difficult and dangerous things. They are already sent to explore other planets or to explore deep underwater. They are used in factories to build cars and other electronics. It seems that the only way we can get such things done is to entrust them to robots. In my opinion, the future of scientific progress is impossible without them. I’m sure that humanoid robots with Artificial Intelligence will be used by new advanced generations.Приближается эпоха роботов. Это результат научно-технического прогресса. Эти механические агенты были созданы, чтобы помогать людям с особо опасной работы и повседневной работой. И, действительно, они способны на многое. Они могут выполнять любые операции, в соответствии с программой, установленной в них. Например, они могут помочь со стиркой, облегчить процесс приготовление пищи, отвечать на телефонные звонки, поднимать упавшие предметы, и даже работать с радиоактивным материалом. Если задуматься, то станет понятно, что в наших домах уже есть роботы. Они представлены не только в виде электронного человека, а также в виде машин для выполнения различных работ. Многие предметы бытовой техники и есть роботы: посудомоечная машина, стиральная машина, сушилка для одежды, микроволновая печь, блендер, пылесос и т.д. Эти умные машины помогают нам на ежедневной основе. Они значительно изменили нашу жизнь к лучшему. Говоря о реалистичных роботах с двумя руками, двумя ногами и головой со встроенным компьютером, эти существа могут быть очень полезны в будущем. Пожалуй, в каждом доме будет, по крайней мере, один такой робот для помощи с рутинной, скучной работой. Кроме того, роботы могут быть использованы для самых сложных и опасных работ. Их уже отправляли изучать другие планеты или исследовать подводные пространства. Они используются на заводах для сборки машин и прочей электроники. Кажется, что справиться с такой работой можно, только доверив ее роботам. На мой взгляд, будущее научного прогресса невозможно без них. Я уверен, что человекоподобные роботы с искусственным интеллектом будут использоваться новыми продвинутыми поколениями.
