A Short History of Cleaning Robots
Autonomous Robots, 2000The definition of the desired functions and the design of an ultimate versatile personal robot is an ongoing debate. Meanwhile, however, precursors of this yet to evolve species are well on their way to become commercial products. Cleaning robots for public environments as well as for private households seem to be able to provide the breakthrough which

Robotic contamination cleaning system
IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and System, 2003This paper describes the development of a Robotic Contamination Cleaning System (RCCS) for use in the radioactive zone of the isolation room of the Irradiated Material Examination Facility (IMEF) at the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI). RCCS was designed to completely eliminate human interaction with the hazardous radioactive contaminants.

A Practical Framework for Cleaning Robots
2011 Sixth International Conference on Bio-Inspired Computing: Theories and Applications, 2011This paper presents an extension to the pattern-based genetic algorithm for multiple cleaning robots to achieve complete coverage path planning in an unknown environment. The extension is formulated in the form of a framework which consists of four phases. The phases are scouting, task distribution, cleaning, and confirmation. The scouting phase allows

Vision-based cleaning area control for cleaning robots
IEEE Transactions on Consumer Electronics, 2012This paper provides a vision based HCI method for a user to command a cleaning robot to move to a specific location in home environment. Six hand poses are detected from a video sequence taken from a camera on the cleaning robot. AdaBoost based hand-pose detectors are trained with a reduced Haar-like feature set to make the detectors robust to the ...

A Navigation System for Cleaning Robots
Autonomous Robots, 2000Free navigation in indoor environments is one of the main enabling technologies for many service robot applications. The SIEMENS navigation system SINAS which is primarily targeted towards cleaning robot applications, has proved its suitability for tough everyday operation since August 1996 on several occasions, e.g., in several chain store ...

If multiple robots are used to cooperatively clean a large room, e.g. an airport, a variety of problems have to be solved. The area which has to be cleaned must be partitioned among the robots, each robot must completely cover the area it is responsible for and collisions among the robots must be avoided.

Swarm robotics for a dynamic cleaning problem
Proceedings 2005 IEEE Swarm Intelligence Symposium, 2005. SIS 2005., 2005Several recent works considered multi agents robotics in static environments. In this work we examine ways of operating in dynamic environments, in which changes may take place regardless of the agents' activity. The work focuses on a dynamic variant of the known Cooperative Cleaners problem (described and analyzed in [I.A.

International Conference on Control '94, 1994
The paper describes the simulation and development programme for a robot demonstrator for window cleaning by mimicking human actions. Human washing and wiping actions are carried out by a sophisticated cleaning head with a combined datum finding and cleaning function. Some of the salient features of the robotic window cleaner are outlined. The combined

A Floor Cleaning Robot for Domestic Environments
Proceedings of the Advances in Robotics, 2017Although a number of cleaning machines have made its way into the market, cleaning robot in the context of domestic floor environments with different types of dust and dynamic obstacles is still a challenge. This paper presents a mobile robot with sweeping, vacuum suction and wiping capacity for effective cleaning of a domestic floor.
