Early robot vacuum cleaners were not as advanced, needing to be controlled by someone with a remote. Some of the first cleaners did have an autonomous mode, although it was not very effective. This mode used a primitive navigation system which caused the vacuum to bump into furniture and stop cleaning. It also used an inefficient path, meaning some spots would get cleaned repeatedly while others not at all. Despite these problems making it hard to complete against conventional vacuums, robotic vacuum cleaners proved to be popular.
