Abstract: A method of operating a mobile cleaning robot can include navigating the mobile cleaning robot within an environment. A vacuum system of the mobile cleaning robot can be operated to ingest debris from the environment Whether a dispense condition is satisfied can be determined. Fluid can be dispensed from the mobile cleaning robot when the dispense condition is satisfied.

Abstract: A method of operating a mobile cleaning robot can include navigating the mobile cleaning robot within an environment. Whether a movement condition is satisfied can be determined and a mopping pad tray can be moved relative to a body of the mobile cleaning robot between a cleaning position and a stored position in response to receipt of a command to move the mopping pad tray when the movement condition is satisfied.

Abstract: A mobile robot includes a recessed well in a top surface of the mobile robot, at least one capacitive sensor underlying the recessed well and having a first region and a second region, one or more mobility sensors, and a controller coupled to the at least one capacitive sensor and the one or more mobility sensors. The controller is configured to determine an operating status of the mobile robot responsive to output signals from the one or more mobility sensors, and selectively disregard an input at a first portion of the recessed well corresponding to the first region of the at least one capacitive sensor based on the operating status of the mobile robot.
