Abstract: A method of controlling rotating side brushes of a robotic cleaning device and a robotic cleaning device performing the method. The robotic cleaning device has a main body, a propulsion system arranged to move the robotic cleaning device across a surface to be cleaned, and a controller arranged to control the propulsion system to move the robotic cleaning device across the surface to be cleaned in accordance with navigation information. The robotic cleaning device has an opening arranged in a bottom side of the main body via which debris is removed from the surface to be cleaned, and at least one rotating side brush adjacent to the opening. The controller registers a speed with which the robotic cleaning device moves across the surface to be cleaned, and controls a rotational speed of the rotating side brush on the basis of the registered speed of movement of the robotic cleaning device.

Abstract: Cleaning robots may use floor-type-detection techniques as a trigger for autonomously altering various floor-cleaning characteristics. In some examples, a controller circuit of the robot is configured to determine a flooring type as a function of a signal from a motion sensor indicative of a change in pitch caused by the robot crossing a flooring discontinuity. In some examples, the controller circuit is configured to determine a flooring type based on a power draw signal corresponding to the cleaning head assembly of the robot.

Abstract: A mobile floor cleaning robot (100) includes a robot body (110) supported by a drive system (120) configured to maneuver the robot over a floor surface (10). The robot also includes a cleaning system (160) supported by the robot body, an imaging sensor (510) disposed on the robot body, and a controller (150) in communication with the drive system and the imaging sensor. The controller receives a sequence of images (514b) of the floor surface. The controller segments each image into color blobs (23) by color quantizing pixels (514) of the image, determines a spatial distribution of each color of the image based on corresponding pixel locations (517), and identifies areas of the image having a threshold spatial distribution for that color. The controller then tracks a location (12a) of the color blobs with respect to the imaging sensor across the sequence of images.
