Abstract
A domestic robotic system including a robot, which includes a movement system for moving the robot over a surface, an image obtaining device, and a processor. The processor is programmed to detect a predetermined pattern within the images, the predetermined pattern being associated with a marker provided on a base station, respond to the detection of the predetermined pattern by determining, by a first process, an estimate of the robot's position and/or orientation, this estimate of the robot's position and orientation being relative to the base station, the processor and the image obtaining device thereby forming part of a first positioning system, determine, by a second process, an alternative estimate of the robot's position and/or orientation, the processor thereby forming part of a second positioning system, and perform at least one calibration of the second positioning system using the first positioning system.
