Abstract: A docking station for a mobile cleaning robot can include a base and a cannister. The base can be configured to receive at least a portion of the mobile cleaning robot thereon, where the base can include a debris port. The cannister can be connected to the base and can be located at least partially above the base. The cannister can include a debris duct connected to the debris port and configured to receive an air stream from the mobile cleaning robot. The lid assembly can be connected to the debris duct and can be configured to receive at least a portion of the air stream from the mobile cleaning robot. A receptacle can be connected to the lid assembly, where the receptacle can be configured to receive at least a portion of debris from the air stream or the lid assembly.
