iRobot Roomba series sweeping robot's lighthouse virtual wall placement skills

The Lighthouse Virtual Wall is one of the standard products of the iRobot Roomba series of high-end sweeping robots. Compared to the simple blocking function of the common virtual wall of other iRobot Roomba sweeping robots, the lighthouse virtual wall model has unique lighthouse cross-region navigation. The function can evenly distribute the cleaning time of each area, which can enhance the cleaning efficiency and improve the overall cleaning coverage. It is especially suitable for large-area and multi-room households.

The placement of the virtual wall of the lighthouse is basically the same as that of the virtual wall, that is, it needs to be placed in parallel at the entrance of the area, so that the central infrared emission window is aligned with the entrance of the area to completely cover, but considering the unique cross-region navigation beam of the lighthouse virtual wall, in a certain In some cases, the artificial placement of the position can further improve the navigation efficiency of the lighthouse virtual wall.

As in Room A and Room B in Figure 1, the partition infrared (red line identification) of the lighthouse virtual wall is aligned with the regional demarcation point, and the navigation beam (blue line identification) of the two areas is correctly aligned with Room A and Room B, navigating The area division correctly crosses the A and B areas, and the Roomba can correctly clean the area between room A and room B, so the virtual wall of the lighthouse is in the correct position.

In the room A and the room B in Figure 2 above, we choose to change the position of the virtual wall of the lighthouse to the bottom. The same zone infrared (red line mark) is aligned with the area demarcation point, and the two area navigation beams (blue line mark) are also correct. Room A and room B are approved, and Roomba can also clean the room between room A and room B correctly, so the location of this lighthouse virtual wall is also correct.

However, unlike the first method of placement, the navigation distance of the virtual navigation beam is farther away. In the first case, the navigation beam of the virtual lighthouse wall is too close to the wall, and the end portion of the navigation beam fails to take effect. The second method of placement fully utilizes the maximum coverage of the light beam of the lighthouse virtual wall, so the location of the virtual wall of the lighthouse in Figure 2 is more reasonable and effective.
