Abstract: A brush with bristles attached to multiple sides is designed to clean any gutter guard type that is manufactured today, including reverse curve type gutter guards. The brush has a main body of reverse-oriented bristles and accommodates an extension pole on the “reverse” side. When placed on top of the gutter guard, the brush can be pushed/pulled back and forth using the pole to dislodge any unwanted debris attached to the gutter guard's working surface. The use of the pole removes the need for a person to be on the roof when attempting to clean the gutter and/or gutter guard. With multiple bristle orientations, the brush can be used for other outdoor cleaning uses, such as house fixtures, structures, windows and so forth.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method and tidying robot system that performs it. A robot of a tidying robot system receives a starting location, a target cleaning area, and obstructions in its path navigating the target cleaning area. It determines a tidying strategy including vacuuming and obstruction handling. It executes the tidying strategy, vacuuming the target cleaning area and moving and/or avoiding obstructions, which are tidyable and/or movable objects. Where the obstruction may be picked up, the robot determines and executes a pickup strategy. Where the obstruction may be relocated but not picked up, it pushes the obstruction to a different location. Where the obstruction cannot be relocated/picked up, it alters its path to avoid the obstruction. The robot determines if the dirt collector is full, and if so, navigates to a base station configured to charge the robot and empty the dirt collector. Otherwise, it continues to execute the tidying strategy.
