Abstract: A robotic appliance (10) with a joystick sensor (94) and associated methods of operation are
provided. In one embodiment, the robotic appliance includes: a housing (12,14), a joystick
sensor (94) configured to provide sensed signals that vary as the robotic appliance (10)
traverses a surface area and comes in contact with an obstacle, a controller adapted
to receive the sensed signals, wherein the controller determines the direction of the
obstacle in relation to the robotic appliance (10) and an x-y plane corresponding to the
surface area based on the sensed signals and controls the robotic appliance (10) based
on the direction of the obstacle, traction means, and a bumper (18) that defines a
periphery for a front section and a rear section of the robotic appliance in the x-y
plane, wherein the bumper (18) is in operative communication with the joystick sensor (94) so
that movement of the bumper (18) in relation to the housing varies the sensed signals.
