Abstract:
A cleaning robot includes a chassis, a drive system connected to the chassis and configured to drive the robot, a signal generator and sensor carried by the chassis, and a controller in communication with the drive system and the sensor. The signal generator directs a signal toward the floor surface. The sensor is responsive to reflected signals from the floor surface. The controller controls the drive system to alter direction of the robot responsive to a reflected signal indicating an edge of the floor surface.

Claim (Index 2):
A cleaning robot comprising:\n a drive system configured to drive the cleaning robot in an environment; a sensor configured to produce a sensor output indicative of a characteristic of a surface on which the cleaning robot is traveling; and a navigation system configured to identify variations in floor surface materials along a path of the robot based on the sensor output and maintain one or more maps of the environment and store information about flooring changes in the one or more maps.
