摘要:
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Betrieb eines einen Akkumulator (2) aufweisenden Haushaltsgerätes (1), wobei ein Ladestartzeitpunkt eines Ladebetriebs zum Laden des Akkumulators (2) in Abhängigkeit von vorgegebenen Bedingungen gesteuert wird. Um eine benötigte Ladekapazität des Akkumulators (2) ohne einen Ladungserhaltungsmodus sicherzustellen, wird vorgeschlagen, dass der Ladestartzeitpunkt in Abhängigkeit von einer Ladedauer und einem vorgegebenen Verwendungszeitpunkt des Haushaltsgerätes (1) gesteuert wird.

A control system for a mobile robot (10) is provided to effectively cover a given area by operating in a plurality of modes, including an obstacle following mode (51) and a random bounce mode (48). In other embodiments, spot coverage, such as spiraling (45), or other modes are also used to increase effectiveness. In addition, a behavior based architecture is used to implement the control system, and various escape behaviors are used to ensure full coverage.

摘要:
A robotic lawnmower (100) for movable operation within a work area (205) has a satellite navigation device (190), a deduced reckoning navigation sensor (195) and a controller (110). The controller causes the robotic lawnmower (100) to movably operate within the work area (205) in a first operating mode, the first operating mode being based on positions determined from satellite signals received by the satellite navigation device (190). The controller determines that a position cannot be reliably determined based on satellite signals received by the satellite navigation device (190), and in response thereto causes the robotic lawnmower (100) to movably operate within the work area (205) in a second operating mode. In the second operating mode, a deduced reckoning position estimate is obtained by the deduced reckoning navigation device (195). A search space is defined using the deduced reckoning position estimate, and the satellite navigation device (190) is recalibrated based on the defined search space. Once the satellite navigation device (190) has been recalibrated, the controller causes the robotic lawnmower (100) to again operate in the first operating mode.
