There is therefore provided, in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a robotic system for systematically moving about an area to be covered. The system includes at least one boundary marker ( 48 ) located along the outer edge of the area to be covered, a robot ( 40 ) with a navigation system ( 41 ) that navigated the robot ( 40 ) in generally straight, parallel lines from an initial location and turns the robot ( 40 ) when the robot ( 40 ) encounters one of the boundary markers ( 48 ), thereby to systematically move about the area to be covered. The sensor unit ( 43 ) senses proximity to one of the at least one boundary marker ( 48 ). |
