Abstract: A method for controlling an autonomous, mobile robot which is designed to navigate independently in a robot deployment area, using sensors and a map. According to one embodiment, the method comprises detecting obstacles and calculating the position of detected obstacles based on measurement data received by the sensors, and controlling the robot to avoid a collision with a detected obstacle, the map comprising map data that represents at least one virtual blocked region which, during the control of the robot, is taken into account in the same way as an actual, detected obstacle.

Abstract: A method for processing a surface of an area to be processed using an autonomous mobile robot. The method includes the steps of controlling the robot in order to process the area according to a first processing pattern, monitoring a region in the surroundings of the robot, wherein the region has a fixed position relative to the robot, and controlling the robot in order to process the area according to a second processing pattern if a reachable and unprocessed region is detected in the monitored region.

Abstract: A method of identifying subjects with colorectal cancer (CRC) is provided. The method includes obtaining a sample from a subject, determining a level of one or more folate one carbon metabolism (FOCM) metabolites in the sample of the subject, and comparing the level of the FOCM metabolites in the sample of the subject to a level in a non CRC control.
