description	A robotic vacuum cleaner (10) with a self-propelled controller (12) with a vacuum source (36, 38) and a dirt receptacle (32), a self-propelled cleaning head (14) with a suction inlet (24), and an interconnecting hose (16) is provided. The controller and cleaning head cooperatively traverse a surface area in tandem when the interconnecting hose is connected between the cleaning head and the controller. In one embodiment, the controller includes a power source (56) making the robot ic vacuum autonomous. In another embodiment, the controller includes a power co rd dispense/retract assembly (168) to provide access to utility power. In anoth er aspect, the controller includes a portable vacuum (20) that is removed for manual operations. In still another aspect, a method of semi-automated environment mapping for a self- propelled robotic vacuum is provided. With respect to the method, the roboti c vacuum also includes a remote control (18).
