Abstract: A robotic cleaner may include a body and an illuminator assembly. At least a portion of the illuminator assembly may be disposed within the body. The illuminator assembly may include an illuminator optic configured to emit light from an illumination surface and an illumination guide configured to direct light into the illuminator optic. The illumination guide may have a cavity. The cavity may include a reflecting surface and a directing surface, the reflecting surface being positioned opposite the directing surface.

Abstract: A beacon for a robotic cleaner may include a housing and an optical indicium having an optical pattern. The optical indicium may be coupled to the housing and be viewable by a camera of the robotic cleaner. After observing the optical indicium, the robotic cleaner may be caused to carry out an action associated with at least a portion of the optical pattern.

Abstract: Vacuum cleaning devices include foldable wands to provide a storage configuration and/or facilitate use. A vacuum cleaning device includes a wand having a first end coupled to a vacuum unit and a second end coupled to a vacuum head or surface cleaning head. The wand defines an air passage allowing air to pass from the surface cleaning head to the vacuum unit and includes a flexible air passage along at least a portion of the wand. The wand also includes a plurality of segments pivotably connected together such that the wand is foldable about 180° in a forward direction until the vacuum unit is positioned proximate a top of the surface cleaning head, thereby providing a storage configuration.
