    Abstract: An electrical charging system including an electrical charger assembly with a charger base coupled to an electrical power source. There is a first male terminal member terminating in a first electrical contact with at least two curved external surfaces and one flat surface. There is a second male terminal member terminating in a second electrical contact with at least two curved external surfaces and one flat surface. There is a cavity formed between the first male terminal member and the second male terminal member having an opening between the first and second electrical contacts. The cavity is defined by the flat surface of the first male terminal member and the flat surface of the second male terminal member. The flat surface of the second male terminal member has a flared surface portion proximate the opening of the cavity and angled relative to the second axis.

    Abstract: An electrical charging station for charging an autonomous robot includes a charging station frame having a frame base with a plurality of interconnected frame elements configured to be secured to a floor. One of the frame elements is a front side frame element. There is a charging station cover mounted on the charging station frame and the charging station cover includes a front side cover having a front surface with a charging member. There is a protective member extending across and having a front surface projecting outwardly from the front surface of the front side cover. The protective member is interconnected to the front side frame element through a plurality of apertures in the front side cover and the front side frame element is located adjacent to a back surface of the front side cover, opposite the front surface.

    Abstract: An electrical charging station for charging an autonomous robot with first and second cameras used for docking the autonomous robot with the electrical charging station. There is a front side cover with a surface, the front side cover including a first charging member configured to receive a second charging member on the autonomous robot when the autonomous robot is docked with the charging station for charging. There is a first fiducial surface including a first fiducial marker affixed to the first surface. The first fiducial surface defines a plane disposed at a first non-zero angle relative to a plane defined by the surface of the front side cover. There is a second fiducial surface including a second fiducial marker affixed to the second surface. The second fiducial surface defines a plane disposed at a second non-zero angle relative to the plane defined by the surface of the front side cover.
