  1. 1. Perceptions of Swedish older adults on the use of smart vacuum cleaners to support ageing in place

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Fakulteten för teknik och samhälle (TS)

    Author : Satya Jeet Singh; Sahand Poursadeghi Khiavi; [2023]
    Keywords : smart vacuum cleaners; older adults; care workers; technology acceptance; Sweden; robotic vacuum cleaners; gerontechnology;

    Abstract : This sequential study explores the perceptions of older adults and careworkers in Sweden regarding the benefits and challenges of smart vacuumcleaners. With a rapidly ageing population, understanding attitudes towardsthe use of such technology becomes essential. READ MORE

  2. 2. JoyTilt : Beyond GUI App Design for Embodied Experience of Controlling a Robot Vacuum Cleaner

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Jura Miniotaité; [2021]
    Keywords : Domestic robots; Embodied Design; Gestures.;

    Abstract : Domestic IoT appliances like smart speakers, smart locks and robot vacuum cleaners are usually connected through smartphone apps to provide additional functionality and remote control. Although smartphones have many different sensors and actuators, these apps provide a primarily graphical user interface with these appliances. READ MORE

  3. 3. Motorized control of a blind

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Samuel Mauritzson; Fabian Revilla; [2019]
    Keywords : mechatronics; arduino; clap switch; blinds; stepper motor; mekatronik; arduino; klappaktivering; gardin; stegmotor;

    Abstract : Automated solutions such as robotic vacuum cleaners and smart lighting are gaining popularity, both in the home as well as in public environments. The purpose of this project is to investigate the possibility of using a microcontroller to, in a user-friendly way, control a blind and to implement a sound sensor to activate the mechanism.

  4. 4. Exploration Strategies for Robotic Vacuum Cleaners

    University essay from KTH/Mekatronik

    Author : Sofia Navarro Heredia; [2018]
    Keywords : grid maps; frontier-based exploration strategies; NBV; node graph; path planning algorithm; Rutnätskartor; front-baserade strategier för utforskning; nästa bästa utsiktspunkt; nod-graf; algoritm för banplanering;

    Abstract : In this thesis, an exploration mode for the PUREi9 robotic vacuum cleaner is implemented. This exploration would provide information for optimizing the cleaning path beforehand, and would allow the robot to relocalize itself or the charger more easily in case it gets lost. READ MORE

  5. 5. A Comparison of Path Planning Algorithms for Robotic Vacuum Cleaners

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Jacob Sörme; Tobias Edwards; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Household robotics is on the rise with robotic vacuum cleaners taking the lead. One of the challenges in creating great robotic vacuum cleaners is path planning for coverage of the room. For instance, the robot might not know how the environment looks, or where in the room the robot is. READ MORE
