摘要 |
A robot designed for scanning within a work area, wherein the robot travels inside the work area in successive paths. The robot operates to scan the work area using a first scanning mode and monitors the length of each of the paths traveled by the robot. The robot than switches from the first scanning mode to a second scanning mode when an obstacle is encountered on a minimum number of consecutive said paths each having a length between a first threshold distance and a longer, second threshold distance. The robot switches back to the first scanning mode when the length of one of the paths has increased to more than the second threshold distance. |

1. A method for scanning, by a robot, a work area to be covered by the robot, wherein the robot travels inside the work area in successive paths, each initiated when the robot changes direction, the method comprising:
scanning the work area using a first scanning mode; monitoring the length of each of the paths traveled by the robot; switching from the first scanning mode to a second scanning mode when an obstacle is encountered on a minimum number of consecutive said paths each having a length between a first threshold distance and a longer, second threshold distance; and, switching back to the first scanning mode when the length of one of the paths has increased to more than the second threshold distance. |
