The Roomba Scheduler

The earlier Roomba models did an awesome job in keeping your homes clean and spotless. Still, the makers behind this technology felt that they could still make improvements on it. The iRobot company has come up with the Roomba Scheduler, the latest application that comes with the Roomba 535 models. It contained the regular Roomba elements plus the ability to clean on a set time. The third generation Roomba, released in 2005, can now think like a human when it does its chores.

Its scheduler makes Roomba the best thing out there. You no longer need to supervise your robot as it cleans the different areas in your home. You just set the Roomba to work on certain times of the day, even while you are not around. It cleans the entire floor as it used the random walk algorithm it was programmed with. Just set the Virtual Wall if you need to block of certain areas, and you're set.

The Virtual Wall is used to collaborate with the Scheduler. It would simply turn around and go the opposite direction so that it follows your desires. This feature is especially helpful when you don't want your Roomba to go into places where the cables and wirings are out in the open. You no longer need not move your stuff around for fear that the mechanism will run into it. It also comes with an extra sensor to detect the dirtiest areas of the room so that it can concentrate on the spot even more.
