  • Publication number: 20210244250
    Abstract: An autonomous cleaning robot (e.g., an autonomous vacuum) may clean an environment using a cleaning head that is self-actuated. The cleaning head includes an actuator assembly comprising an actuator configured to control rotation and vertical movement of a cleaning roller, a controller, and a cleaning roller having an elongated cylindrical length connected to the actuator assembly. The cleaning head also includes a computer processor connected to the actuator assembly and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium that causes the computer processor to map the environment based on sensor data captured by the autonomous vacuum. The computer processor may determine an optimal height for the cleaning head based on the map and instruct the actuator assembly to adjust the height of the cleaning head.

  • Publication number: 20210244249
    Abstract: An autonomous cleaning robot (e.g., an autonomous vacuum) may employ a cleaning head for cleaning messes in an environment. The cleaning head may comprise an enclosure with a brush opening at a first side, a mop opening at a second side, and an outlet connected to a vacuum pump. The outlet may open to a cavity within the enclosure. The cleaning head may further comprise a brush roller configured at a front of the enclosure, a mop roller configured behind the brush roller in the enclosure, an actuator connecting the mop roller and brush roller to the enclosure, and a selection flap hinged at a top portion of the cavity. Each of the brush roller and mop roller may be externally exposed at the brush opening and mop opening, respectively, and the actuator may be configured to move the enclosure vertically.

  • Publication number: 20210245081
    Abstract: A waste collection bag may be used by an autonomous cleaning robot (e.g., an autonomous vacuum) to store waste during a plurality of cleaning processes. The waste bag comprises a waste bag, a waste collection sachet, and an absorbent. The waste bag has a first side and a second side, where the first side has an opening for waste to enter, and is composed of filtering material. The waste collection enclosed sachet has a first side and a second side that connect to form a cavity. The waste collection enclosed sachet is tethered to the second side of the waste bag and is composed of dissolvable paper. The absorbent may absorb liquid waste and is located inside the cavity of the waste collection enclosed sachet.

  • Publication number: 20180235517
    Abstract: The embodiments herein provide a system and method for collecting specific form and posture related visual data from an athlete for analysis. The form-related diagnosis is extracted from an athlete's video recording to establish a correlation between predicted analysis and actual observation. The data related to specific form and posture are collected from a person's pictures taken at specific angles and videos of a person performing a predefined activity for the review by experts. The picture or video of user while performing an exercise/a sport activity is captured. The posture, symmetry and body structure details are identified through visual recognition of bones, muscles or preset points. A quantitative identification/estimation of load-bearing and stress-bearing capability of a body part is done. A personalized grade sensitivity matrix is calculated/computed to provide an intuitive representation of data and multiple outputs with different renderings of data.
