Check out the upcoming Dyson 360 Eye - http://www.dyson360eye.com/ http://www.dyson360eye.com/
Disclaimer: I worked on it.
Edit: To answer your question directly, you have 3 choices:
1. Don't map (or somewhat guess it) - Roomba.
2. Map first, then clean - Neato.
3. Map as you clean - Dyson 360 Eye.
This is obviously a crude explanation but they get harder going down the list. If you are interested to know more, read up on SLAM (Simultaneous Localisation and Mapping) algorithms.
- robterrell 11y agoHow is it better than Roomba and Neato -- what's the cleaning algorithm? Does it map the space? etc. Edit: thanks, you answered while I was asking. That's a very interesting use case for SLAM. Does it re-map every use (i.e. today there's toys on the floor, but tomorrow there's not)? Does it store the point cloud or convert it to something more manageable? Are you licensing someone's SLAM library or did you roll your own?
