Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	An autonomous mobile robot configured to move across a floor area in accordance with a floor covering strategy that includes: based on a topological map of the floor area, designating a location of a current cell that is bounded by a primary boundary (302); executing a series of double strokes into and within the current cell, while mapping obstructive objects (306) within the current cell (300) onto an obstacle map; from said obstacle map determining a secondary boundary (304) of the current cell, which boundary encloses an area (308) of the current cell covered by the executed double strokes, and distinguishes between secondary boundary portions thereof at which an obstructive object (306) is located, and secondary boundary portions thereof at which no obstructive object is located; and adding the determined secondary boundary (304) to the topological map of the floor area.
