Robotic vacuum cleaner, also known as robovac, is a cleaner having some degree of freedom or autonomy from the user. It’s basically programmed to clean. While all of them utilises vacuum to clean, there are others having extra features such as UV sterilisation, mopping and spinning brushes.

It was in the year 1996 that the first robotic vacuum cleaner appeared. It was designed by Swedish household plus professional appliance manufacturer, Electrolux and was given the name “Trilobite”. Though it worked fairly well, it had also problems colliding with objects.
