Robot vacuums navigate your home using a combination of sensors and mapping technologies. Basic models often rely on random navigation through bump sensors that trigger direction changes upon contact with obstacles [2][4]. More advanced models utilize techniques like LiDAR and camera-based mapping, allowing them to systematically chart their cleaning paths and avoid collisions [1][10]. This technology enables efficient coverage and the ability to return to previously cleaned areas while minimizing the risk of falling down stairs or getting stuck on furniture [9][11].
