METHOD FOR OPERATING A SELF-TRAVELLING ROBOT

Method for Operating a Self-travelling Robot The invention pertains to a method for operating a self- traveling robot (1), wherein an environment map of an environment (2) of the robot (1) is generated based on measuring data recorded within the environment (2), wherein a position of the robot (1) within the environment (2) is estimated, and wherein the robot (1) travels within the environment (2) based on the environment map and its known position. In order to extend the maximum range of the robot (1) within the environment (2), it is proposed that an environment map, which is currently not needed for the navigation of the robot (1), is detected and transmitted to an external memory unit (3).
