Abstract
Reporters obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors:“Automated or robotic power tools such as robotic lawnmowers are becoming increasingly more popular.In a typical deployment, a work area, such as a garden, the robotic work tool may not be aware of manyobjects, stationary or movable, tat the robotic work tool may collide with. As such, collision detection isnecessary in order to enable toe robotic work tool to adapt its operation when a collision is detected, toavoid the robotic work tool from simply stopping in front of the object by trying to push through it.
