Abstract: An autonomous cleaning robot performs a cleaning function and determines if an obstacle is in its path while performing the cleaning function. When an obstacle is in its path, the autonomous cleaning robot determines if a height of the obstacle is under a clearance height of the autonomous cleaning robot. When the height of the obstacle is under the clearance height of the autonomous cleaning robot, the autonomous cleaning robot determines if the obstacle is to be avoided. When the obstacle is to be avoided, the autonomous cleaning robot changes its path to avoid traversing over the obstacle.
