摘要： An image selection method, applied to a self-propelled apparatus, includes: collecting an image from a surrounding environment through an image collection device during the self-propelled apparatus travels; scoring the image according to a scoring rule when there is a recognizable obstacle in the collected image, wherein a value of the scoring is used to indicate an imaging quality of the recognizable obstacle in the image; and selecting an image that comprises the recognizable obstacle and that has a highest score as a to-be-displayed image in response to receive a request to view the image of the recognizable obstacle. A computer-readable storage medium and a self-propelled apparatus are further provided.

摘要： A surface-cleaning apparatus (1) includes: a main-body housing (2); a suction motor (6), which is housed in the main-body housing and is driven to recover a cleaning liquid from a surface of a cleaning target; a first tank (3), which houses the cleaning liquid to be supplied to the surface of the cleaning target; and a second tank (4), which houses the cleaning liquid recovered from the surface of the cleaning target. One tank of the first tank and the second tank has a tank-recessed portion (22) that is recessed from a portion of a surface of the one tank. The other tank of the first tank and the second tank has a lower surface (4A) that opposes a stationary surface on which the surface-cleaning apparatus sits.
