Abstract

Systems and methods for navigating an autonomous vacuum are disclosed. According to one method, the autonomous vacuum traverses a cleaning environment having a plurality of surfaces. As the autonomous vacuum is traversing the cleaning environment, sensors on the autonomous vacuum capture sensor data describing a first section of a surface on which the autonomous vacuum is currently traversing. Based on the received sensor data, the autonomous vacuum can determine that the first section is of a first surface type of a plurality of surface types. The autonomous vacuum can generate a user interface with a background displaying the determined first surface type to notify the user of where the autonomous vacuum is cleaning.
