The storage bears instructions executable by the processor to receive an image of an area from a camera, and to execute image recognition on the first image to identify a dirty region in the area. Based on the identification of the dirty region, the instructions are executable to generate a command for a robotic cleaning device to move to the dirty region for facilitating cleaning of the dirty region by the robotic cleaning device.
