How Your Homerun Works; How Your Homerun Finds Its Way Around - Philips HomeRun FC9910 Benutzerhandbuch

3 How your HomeRun
works
3.1 How your HomeRun finds
its way around
1 The homeRun takes pictures of the ceiling
with its camera when it starts cleaning and
also during cleaning.
2 The homeRun also uses its sensors to detect
objects around it.
3 The homeRun uses the pictures taken by its
camera and the information gathered with its
sensors to create a map of the room and to
establish where it is in the room.
4 The homeRun uses the map to navigate and
to determine the most efficient route to clean
the floor.
5 The homeRun makes a new map every time
it cleans. It will therefore always find its way
around, even if you have changed the layout of
the room.
6 if your homeRun appears to miss an area
while cleaning, you do not have to worry. The
robot will use its map to return to this area
and clean it later.
Note:
D
You cannot use the homeRun in a dark room
because it navigates with help of its camera and
needs light to do so.
Warning:
B
Do not pick up and move the HomeRun while it
is cleaning. If you do this, the robot loses its way
and skips areas.
