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 21):
The method of  claim 17  in which the bounded area is a carpeted area, wherein the at least one open edge is adjacent an uncarpeted floor surface, and wherein the direction of motion of the autonomous cleaning robot is altered in response to the sensor output indicating reflection of a signal from the uncarpeted floor surface.
